Lexus UK has canned the petrol-engined GS and
LS sedans, cutting the range down to hybrid models only.
The GS and LS ranges now consist of one model each – the GS450h and L600h – and Lexus will only sell the new RX as a hybrid (it is available with the petrol V6 in the U.S).
A Lexus source described the decision as “a logical move for the company”. The IS range will remain as it is, with petrol and diesel engines available.
