@CarSpotsBelgium In eco modus (met de knop gekozen) haal ik 100km/h in10.4 sec. Inderdaad, met de pedaal zachtjes ingedrukt duurt het veel langer. Maar dat kan men met om het even welke wagen doen. Begrijp dus niet wat men daarmee wil bewijzen. Beoordeling hangt af van standpunt/ normen. Vanuit het standpunt van de beoogde doelgroep voor deze wagen (o.m. prijsbewust, milieubewust, gevoelig voor enige luxe, ...) tegenover bijv. een Ferrari rijder. Ik voel me goed ermee (rationeel en emotioneel).
@Rahdjeev Ik kan wel degelijk goed luisteren. De 0-100 test werd uitgevoerd in ECO modus. En ECO modus is NIET volledig elektrisch! Je vergist je. Lees eens een handleiding van deze wagen of rij er eens mee. En opnieuw, met de pedaal half ingedrukt een 0-100 test doen. Wat wil men daar eigenlijk mee bewijzen?
this is funny to watch, i wasnt paying attention the first 3 seconds and i thought he was speaking english....soon after i realized i was mistaken....
I don't get how this car can be economical if it goes over 5000 rpm each time you push the pedal a bit thanks to that crappy CVT. Yea 0-100 in 1 minute if you want to be economical. What a waste of time. Give me a Diesel any day... Wait... I have one, and I'll go much quicker and consume less...
Everyone asking in all autoblogger vieos what language is that...GET A LIFE STUPIDS!! Do you think there are only two languages in the world? yours and english?? There are more of 6000!!!
@antakyusilo You spammer, isn't true, the battery life is about 7 years or 600.000km tested by the italian magazine Quattroruote on a 1998 Toyota Prius first series so shut the fuck up.
Taxes are very high on cars in Netherlands, so the price quoted reflects that. This car isn't much more expensive than a Golf.
It's disappointing that CVT transmission means high revs. As we know it's not going to be fun to drive, it could have at least been a very silent car and not only when it's running on batteries.
£40K, for a car that does 0-60 in 10 seconds......lol are they serious? a 1.8 petrol engine with 99bhp....thats just pathetic. Does anyone else think this car is a rip off?
A Golf GTD had 170bhp, does 0-60 in 8 seconds and will match if for overall fuel economy, oh and cost £18k LESS!!
@soundseeker63 Lots of people i guess, try to see the sales in the first month is already in the 3rd place of the best selling hybrid cars in the USA and is doing very well also in Canada. I still don't know much about Europe but in Holland is already a success and is on sale only since one month. Eventually the most patetic thing is to buy a Golf wich is very unreliable (diesel engines) and overpriced plus with a mainteinance costs much more expensive than a premium car like this.
@IwantaLexusLFA Well over here, Honda Insight = Flop. Toyota Prius = Flop.
I live about 3 minutes walk away from a Lexus dealership and haven't seen a single one of these on the road yet.
Golf unreliable and expensive to run? Hmm, well if that was the case I doubt it would be the best selling small hatchback in Europe for nearly 30 years.
This car isn't even very economical for motorway or A road driving, it is only useful in the city and at £24000 + very expensive for a city car!!
@soundseeker63 Lots of people are very angry with VW and their unreliable Golf TDI (me too) and in fact i'm about to change my Golf 4 TDI (wich I hate) with a new CT200h. Performances and power are totally useless in a diesel, for a couple of reasons: speed limit and unreliability. But you must be a child if the performance are the most important thing for you. BTW CT300h and CT400h are coming so if we want to talk about performance we have to wait just a little bit and let's see what happen.
@soundseeker63 Prius flop? Mmmmmh, see what happen in the USA, and in many other part of the world, by the way i work in an import/export car dealership in Italy and i know very well how the Golf TDI is unreliable. Try to the forum about this car. If see well in Europe it doen't mean that it must be the best selling car of the world. By the way in the USA it's so rare to meet a VW Golf. I live in Italy aniway and i have a lots of friend wich after a very negative experience with a diesel VW...
@soundseeker63 Oh, i forgot it, VW remain one of the worst brands in J.D Power 2011 and Lexus still in 3rd position although the recalls so you can easily understand why you can't pun in comparison a shitty VW with a Lexus or Toyota. You don't have to hate me. 10 years ago i was a VW enthusiast but then i discovered the truth, VW is the most overrated brand of the world. They selling well just because they have a great marketing. Period.
@IwantaLexusLFA Yeah, and the Skoda Octavia (based on golf) came second for best small family car, and VW Jetta came 5th. The Golf came 8th, Audi A3 came 9th (based on golf), both ahead of the shitbag Toyota Auris which came 10th.
And anyway, my point wasn't that VW Golf specifically was a batter car (even though it is) but that mainstream non hybrid diesel cars are quicker, cheaper, just as fuel efficient, better looking and easier to service and dispose of at the end of their lives. All true.
@soundseeker63 You have totally missed the point of that car! I like this car a lot. I have test driven it a couple of days ago and I would never ever get a Golf GTD instead. If you don't know why, I suggest you go ahead and test drive them both...
Lexus kind of failed with this car. If they offered a Gas Turbo engine choice people would've actually considered getting this car. But with a hybrid just like the Honda Cr-z its not going to get alot of customers..
i think toyota (sorry, i meant lexus) have just realised that they can't win the battle of the premium brands.
so what do they do???
they try to beat MERC/BMW/AUDI to what they think is the future of the premium brand (by putting an electric motor in everything)...obviously they have failed.
0-100km/h in 1min 6 sec...this car should be made illegal to drive on public roads.
CAN'T WAIT TILL THE DAY TOYOTA FILES FOR BANKRUPTCY...
Forget the damn CT 200h. I know the planet may be ailing, but in all honesty is this really a solution. This is what Lexus should do. Focus on the performance factors i.e. bring to life something like the Lexus GS F, so we can at at least have some fun before we die and not die in Hybrid Synergy Drive boredom.
wow, the 0-60 time...at first I though it was in mph, and was thinking, wow 20 seconds, horrible, and then i remembered it was in kph, at which point I didn't say anything.
@GMJBullseye Waar staan de e, x, u, en s dan voor? Beetje kinderachter commentje weer he ;). Kijk maar eens naar de IS-F... is dat ook ''Loser?''. Hoef nog niet eens te beginnen over de LFA.
De L staat voor en achterop de auto. Exus zie ik nergens staan. De LFA goed dat je het zegt. Als je zoiets koopt dan ben je "nono" "hersenloos" "nolifer" een half miljoen voor een toyota dan ben je helemaal gestoord. (bij een gewone ook al een beetje;)) Maar nog een vraag: wat betekend kinderachter? Als je zonodig een jappen auto wil hebben koop dan een nissan coupe een honda of infiniti.
@GMJBullseye Oh nu spam ik? Nu hebben we ieder net zoveel comments gezet hoor ;) Nee... ik heb een schijthekel aan het gebash op Japanse auto's. Top Gear doet precies hetzelfde.
Let's face it, it's interesting because of the tax break, which makes the car affordable for a Golf audience when driven as a company car. I've heard the complaints about the CVT box before and that kinda makes me wary. I'll take it for a spin myself, once it's available.
great test!!! this is for old people who enjoy sleeping at a stop...... i fiind it pointless and very very shitty and with that starcraft interior wtf???
@kagolko True, I was mistaken about the prices. But that's still a whole lot of cash for the Lexus. For that kind of money I'd much rather get other cars.
@ratmtbola No you cannot. Just add up all the options the CT has in that trim level as standard which the Audi does not and you will realize the Audi S3 is - a lot - more expensive. And I've not covered gas cost yet...
