When more than one driver uses the HS 250h, an available new memory system allows individual driver settings to be recalled automatically by individual keys, saving the drivers the trouble of recalling their particular setting. The system memorizes the steering-wheel position, seat position, exterior mirror positions and air conditioning settings associated with each key, translating to shorter preparation time prior to driving.

Leather-trimmed seating is standard with a 10-way power-adjustable front seat, including power lumbar, for the driver. The passenger receives a standard eight-way power-adjustable seat, with a 10-way power-adjustable option. Heated or heated/ventilated front seats trimmed in semi- aniline leather are available in premium grade vehicles.

The 2010 Lexus HS 250h comes with a 147-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that is mated to dual electric motors. The first motor is a starter and a generator, as well as the control for the CVT transmission ratios; the second motor is the propulsion motor, and is rated at 141-horsepower. Regenerative braking feeds electricity to the Nickel Metal Hydride battery pack, which in turn powers the electric motors when needed, providing four driving modes.



This hybrid system delivers a whopping 35 mpg in the city and 34 mpg on the highway, which is better overall mileage than the Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid (although not quite competitive with Honda’s Insight and Civic hybrids).A standard Lexus-style wonder of an interior awaits occupants of the 2010 HS 250h. A ten-speaker stereo with six-CD changer, USB/Bluetooth connectivity and XM Satellite Radio covers all your audio needs, while eco-friendly plastics please the hybrid crowd. Automatic dual-zone climate control with rear seat AC vents, an air filter, and a moonroof enhance comfort and ambience. Leather on the seats, door panel inserts, and steering wheel complete the luxurious look and feel of the interior. Outside, LED brake and tail lights provide an excellent visual cue as to the modernity of the 250h.
