17 Solid-state Inverter 650V 288V switching

18 Two-stage planetary gears GS450h

19 Compound planetary gears Compound planetary gears x2

20 1. 2478 drive motor gearing multiplies torque, allows more compact motor 1. 2478 drive motor gearing multiplies torque, allows more compact motor

21 Electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission Electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission Optimum efficiency No shift points Seamless acceleration No slippage / loss of energy Optimum efficiency No shift points Seamless acceleration No slippage / loss of energy

22 E- FOUR Saves on fuel Traction when required Added torque for take-off/acceleration Traction in marginal conditions Saves on fuel Traction when required Added torque for take-off/acceleration Traction in marginal conditions

23 E- FOUR Operation Acceleration Tight cornering Acceleration Tight cornering

24 Regenerative Braking RX400h – braking on both axles Maximum efficiency RX400h – braking on both axles Maximum efficiency

25 E-FOUR / VDiM VDiM can activate E-FOUR Varies front / rear torque split Up to 72 : 28

26 VDiM Steering Assist Control Assistance is skid control, braking and accelerating on split – mµ surfaces

27 Electric Power Steering 42 Volt DC motor Reduced engine load 1.5% fuel saving DC/DC converter 42 Volt DC motor Reduced engine load 1.5% fuel saving DC/DC converter

28 RX400h Air-Conditioning Electric-powered compressor Cools vehicle while engine stopped Efficient cooling, greater fuel efficiency Electric-powered compressor Cools vehicle while engine stopped Efficient cooling, greater fuel efficiency

29 RX400h NO COMPROMISE

30 TRUE LEXUS
