    NuLuxe is this environmentally friendly synthetic/man-made leather. It's standard fare here with real cowhide as an available option.

    no, once again, people are not comparing same models.

    BASE CT200h in Europe, comes with 15" wheels (it is called "Eco" version), and has 3.8l/100km combined consumption, on par with Auris Hybrid and slightly better than 15" Prius.

    You are using figures for 17" model.

    Weight is also the same as Auris Hybrid, comparing 15" version to 15" version.

    In the US, there is only higher spec version with 17" wheels. And thus its weight and MPG are not directly comparable to 15" Prius which what Toyota lists for mpg and weight.

    When in doubt, always use official Lexus Europe site, not UK site as UK does not get all of the models, almost never.
    LEXUS - Lexus CT 200h technical data - A Full Hybrid Luxury Compact Hatchback Car

    As you can see there, difference between true BASE CT200h and TOP model is 95 kg!!!
    That is 210lbs.

    So in US, you get to compare base Prius to top spec CT200h official figures, which is why there is such difference. Toyota USA does not test well equipped Prius independently, and only that version would be directly comparable to US model CT200h.

    Probably means in terms of packaging the HSD components in a smaller car (which is odd since the 1st Gen Prius was btwn a Tercel and Corolla in size but had bigger components)
