A hidden Gem
A brilliant underrated car that should be on top of the list in the compact executive class.
I don't know what the What Car tester was smoking when he reviewed this car but it wasn't Woodbines.
Of course it isn't a BMW, Audi or Mercedes. In the real world it's much better. More refined, more comfortable and when in Sports Mode goes like a stuck rat with plenty of grip. It's a joy to drive.
The Hybrid Drive with the eCVT gearbox is a strength not a weakness giving effortless driving with diesel economy.
Well done Lexus, this car is a hidden gem.
