2010 Lexus HS250h

Safety features abound, but with less of the handling prowess for which smaller Lexus models have been known. Even with the fat 18-inch tires and wheels in the test car's premium package, the car just isn't a lot of fun on winding roads. Steering feel is comparable to that of an arcade video game it doesn't seem that connected to the front wheels. Acceleration is leisurely but adequate.
