Most Lexus models are hybrids, which often qualify for lower road tax in several states, further reducing their on-road prices. Buyers who choose hybrid models may find that their effective costs decrease even more when state taxes, registration fees, and incentives are taken into account.
In India, Lexus has concentrated its offerings around hybrid powertrains. This strategy provides its vehicles with an advantage in terms of both fuel running costs and reduced operational expenses in states that offer tax incentives for hybrids.
