Thanks everybody! At least it all seems logical now.

Hi - just joined after a whole four days of Lexus ownership! I do have a question to kick off with: when I start my rx400h for the first time in a day, the petrol motor invariably cuts in after only a few seconds ie. even before I’ve moved off. I have made sure the air blower/air con is switched off before I remove the key, so I don’t see why it needs to do this. There is no sloping drive for it to tackle either. I just don’t have enough hybrid experience yet to know if this is normal, so any thoughts would be gratefully received.
