This isn’t too surprising since it was already reported that the Lexus HS 250h hybrid sedan wasn’t exactly flying out of showrooms, but it’s now confirmed that the HS 250h is dead. Inside Line has confirmed with Toyota that production of the HS 250h has already ended.
“Production of the HS 250h ceased in January, 2012. Lexus continues to monitor sales for each product and we make adjustments to make sure that we meet market demand, and the discontinuation of HS was part of that adjustment. The ES 300h is not replacing HS in our lineup. It’s merely part of the hybridization of many of our existing vehicles in the Toyota and Lexus lineups.”
Sales of the HS 250h dropped 73 percent last year to only 2,864 units from 10,663 in 2010.
