"One of its next hybrid models will be a version of the Lexus RX 330, the upcoming replacement of the popular RX 300 SUV."

The three current "hybrids" are small sedans-quite small.

The RX 330 would appear to be a mid-sized (Camry based) cross-over wagon. Some call it a medium sized SUV. The "330" designation seemingly implies a 3.3 litre, six cylinder gasoline engine.

Hybrids can perform well. I have read that they accelerate well, using BOTH motors.

If ANYBODY builds and sells vehicles of adequate size and performance, with great mileage, for competitive prices, they will sell.

Thus far, nobody has, however, and they haven't sold many.
