07/24/2018 Lexus RC 300h, unique combination
The Lexus RC 300h is a coupe of 4.70 meters in whose design the manufacturer has given the best. Spectacular from all angles, the Japanese model, derived from the IS sedan, is made of high quality materials, so much so that it can also compete on equal terms with its similar European premium. This point is noticeable not only for its interior or for its meticulous design, but also for its impeccable handling that is a delight. The mechanical problems that a derivative of train of total power of 223 hp, with a gasoline engine of 2.5 liters, of four cylinders, 181 hp, joined to another electrical of 143 CV (it is necessary to remember that in the hybrids the total power it is not the direct sum of the power of your engines). They are associated with a continuously variable CVT gearbox with the possibility of sequential manipulation of six prefixed ratios with the paddles on the steering wheel. The nickel-metal hydride batteries are charged from a generator (not through an exterior door exit) and can move the car without spending gasoline. The good work done by the moderate consumption of gasoline, accredits an average of 4.9 liters per 100 km (we discharge more than a liter in our tests) and performances that are not bad at all given that the weight is approximately 1800 kg. From zero to one hundred in 8.6 seconds and a maximum speed reach well to the 190 km / h of electronic self-limitation.
The rear drive brings a certain sportiness to the steering wheel, sensations that can be modified with the driving mode selector (Eco, Normal, Snow and Sport) that involves all the involved devices to create different profiles. As our test unit has the special equipment F Sport, which are added two more radical modes (Sport S and Sport S +), which modify the reactions of the car to make it more direct and explosive, as well as to put an adaptive suspension . Variable 19-inch tires, a system that amplifies exhaust noise through the speakers and various external and internal accessories. During the operation, a computer optimizes the work of the two propellers, according to the selected profile and, if the batteries are charged, it is possible to travel a few kilometers in electric mode, as we indicated. When you start working with the engine (gasoline), you hear very little inside and it is assumed that the propulsion is not too strong, considering the appearance of the vehicle. Anyway, we quickly get used to his touch, which, on the other hand, is excellent (a bit underweight by the weight on the front), very safe and with a configuration, especially in the most sporty and exquisite modes. It is easy to take high rhythms on the road and the slow sections are approved with a note and it is not a pure sport. The Lexus RC 300h is a very special vehicle. It has a very fun side that also allows you to travel kilometers without having to frequently visit the gas station. And all this with the very attractive coupé aura that leaves no one indifferent.
