Hi everyone! I have just today taken collection of my first Lexus, a GS450h SE-L 06 plate with 50k miles. Having now driven it with a few open roads, can someone tell me if the following is normal:
Whether driving with the power button depressed or not, foot down in drive gives a power of 152kW and goes no higher. Even in S transmission mode, this is the max. The only time I can get it to ~240kW is using kick-down, ie. pressing the accelerator down further once already down to press the kick down button.
It just seems strange that 152kW is max unlesss the kickdown is used?
Your help is much appreciated, and once again, hi to all LOC members!
Addition:
Now that I've driven this a little more, wow this thing flies!!! I think it's as quick as my wife's Audi S4!
