Lexus hybrid takes on the Nurburgring

(Taken verbatim from http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13746_7-20062673-48.html)

Hybrids face the stigma of being more about fuel economy than sport, but the Lexus CT 200h intends to prove it can be a hot hatchback by lapping the Nurburgring. A CT 200h tuned up by Gazoo Racing will compete in the Adenauer ADAC Rundstrecken-Trophy, a six hour endurance race.

Along with suspension tuning, the CT 200h's standard 1.8-liter engine has been swapped out for a 2.4-liter. But the car retains its Lexus hybrid system, letting it use the electric motor from a stop and for added boost under acceleration. This hybrid system will give the CT 200h lower fuel use, a crucial advantage in an endurance race.

Gazoo Racing, a Japanese group racing various Toyota and Lexus models, missed an opportunity to also tune up the hybrid system of the CT 200h. A higher capacity lithium ion battery pack and a higher torque electric motor would give the car added acceleration.

The race will be held on Saturday, May 14.

SPEED wrote a great article about the New Lexus CT200! 

Here is a little bit of the article....

"CT, as I'll call it, is a good-looking four-door hatchback that is a dedicated hybrid, i.e. there is no regular gas-powered version to cause confusion. The look may not be as unique as Prius’ but at least those who recognize it will know it is a hybrid and nothing else. Which, I suppose, is an important thing for those who want to be perceived as good people.

With fuel prices hovering around $4 per gallon on average, a cool-looking Lexus hybrid might just fill the bill. Lexus notes that CT is the only luxury-compact hybrid on the market, thus far.

CT does perform with all the tidy excellence of Prius, with a seamless interchange of gasoline and electric power and various modes of operation for either more-efficient or better-performance driving. Like the Prius, its greatest efficiency comes in urban driving where the electric motor has a greater role rather than in highway driving, when the small gas engine does most of the heavy lifting."

The Royal Wedding, will Lexus be there?

Among the crowds of cars that are being used during the royal ceremony stretching between Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey, His highness Prince Albert the second and his would be wife Miss Charlene Wittstock will be on a ride in a Lexus LS600h. This occasion in all its probability will be the most grand venture of all the marketing efforts of the hybrid car that took place till date. So it can be assumed that top executives are high on their excitement and in absolute exuberance at the event.

This specially designed and made LS600h will sport integrated flashing lights, a royal emblem along with an “MC 01″ license plate. Below the hood there will be the traditional 5.0 liter V8 engine in combination with an electric motor for a net output of 439 HP.

“His Serene Highness takes a keen interest in encouraging innovative solutions for environmental protection and sustainable development around the world, founding the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation in 2006. His Foundation supports more than 150 projects monitoring environmental evolution and protecting species endangered by climate change. It also provides assistance in water management in developing regions. With its pioneering state-of-the-art full hybrid technology delivering class-leading CO2 efficiency and environmental performances, Lexus is pleased to contribute to the objectives defined by His Serene Highness and to help the Principality of Monaco to become an international reference in terms of sustainable mobility.”
