No company has been more bullish on the hybrid than Toyota.
Between the Toyota and Lexus brands, there are 16 straight hybrid models from which to choose in addition to 3 plug-ins.
After all, Toyota practically wrote the book on hybrid technology when they introduced the Prius over two decades ago.
But with a torrent of pure EVs coming to market, is the humble gasoline-electric hybrid here only to meet CAFE standards, or is it still an attractive, more affordable option for consumers to fend off the pump? Based on sales, the latter is most definitely true and in an age of record-breaking gas prices, the hybrid is proving its worth as a bridge to full electrics.
That brings us to the all-new, 2nd generation Lexus NX – a compact crossover now offered 3 ways: without electrification, electrically assisted, and one with a bigger, rechargeable battery that when plugged in can provide 37 miles of all-electric operation before fossil fuels join the hybrid party.
