We purchased our new Lexus 400h about 2 months ago and have put over 2000 miles on it. The mileage combines freeway and city driving. The salesman told us that the mileage on the sticker, 27/31 was not what people were getting and that it was expected that the government would soon raise the mileage by 10MPG each. Unfortunately, our mileage has been 10 MPG LESS. We drive very conservatively, and the only time our mileage is about 22 MPG is when we're coasting downhill.
The car does drive amazingly smoothly, and you cannot feel the change in when it's running on battery or gas engine. However, for all the money we spent over what the RX330 costs, our combined mileage of about 17-22 MPG is not worth what we paid for the car. Lexus looked our car over and said there is nothing wrong with it. There is something wrong with the numbers they are claiming for their MPG. This car is not worth the money for such poor mileage.
