BMW ActiveHybrid 5 (2012) CAR review

BMW ActiveHybrid 5 (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 01 February 2012 10:45

This is the new 2012 BMW ActiveHybrid 5. And if you haven’t guessed already, that means it’s a hybrid version of BMW’s 5-series executive saloon. Essentially it’s an electrified 535i, and rather idiosyncratically the addition of 150kg of extra weight has supposedly improved fuel consumption and emissions by a double-digit percentage. It’s simpler than the defunct twin electric motor BMW X6 ...

Lexus GS450h F Sport (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

This is the fourth generation Lexus GS, but it’s not about to take on the hegemony of Audi, BMW and Mercedes in Europe as there are still no plans for a four-cylinder diesel. There /is/ a new 2.5-litre V6 petrol but, officially, it’s dirtier and less fuel efficient than the headline-grabbing hybrid version, the GS450h. It’s the hybrid we’ve tested ...

This is the Infiniti M35 Hybrid, the company’s first hybrid offering. CAR has just been behind the wheel in Japan, and not only has the stint allowed us to test the electrified powertrain, but it’s also our first chance to assess the chances of Infiniti’s new 5-series/E-class/A6 rival. The new M Line is on sale in America and the UK ...

Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid (2010) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

You know a car is long awaited when it’s given an entire engine transplant before it’s even been launched. CAR first rode in the new Porsche Cayenne Hybrid back in July 2007. Two years later, it’s still not on sale and now it’s been transformed from a 3.6 V6 into the Cayenne S Hybrid toting Audi’s new 3.0-litre supercharged V6. ...

Lexus RX450h (2009) CAR review

Lexus RX450h (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Oliver, 01 May 2009 11:30

The new Lexus RX450h boasts some figures so staggering that even if you’re a diehard opponent of hybrids, crossovers, and particularly cars like this that combine the two, you’re going to have to take notice. Compared to the car it replaces, power is up 10% to 295bhp, but fuel economy improves by 23% to 44.8mpg and CO2 emissions fall from ...
