Lexus Announces 10 year/1,000,000km Warranty on UX300e

Lexus intends to introduce its first all-electric model in Europe, the UX 300e by the end of 2020 (initially only in select markets), following the recent launch in China.

The first BEV comes after 15 years of engagement in conventional hybrids and the experience of over 1.7 million produced since 2005.

Today, the Japanese brand has announced an unprecedented battery warranty for the UX 300e, which should give buyers peace of mind: 10-year (or 1,000,000 km / 621,500 miles) including capacity degradation below 70%.

Hyundai prices Sonata Hybrid just over CAD$40,000

Hyundai’s new Sonata Hybrid will start at $40,099, and will be made available in just a single trim with features like an innovative solar-panel roof.

That puts it above even the top-level $38,599 Ultimate trim Sonata, though it does have many of that car’s features, like a 10.25-inch widescreen display with navigation; 12-speaker Bose premium audio; and a 12.3-inch fully digital LCD cluster and head-up display.

For that money, the powertrain you’ll get is a 2.0L Smartstream four-cylinder mated to a 38-kW electric motor, good for a combined 192 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque.

A 1.62-kWh battery can be topped up by the aforementioned solar cells — Hyundai says how sunny it is where you live, six hours of rays a day on that panel can net you up to 1,300 free kilometres of charge (though in February, a U.S. release figured it closer to 1,125 km). Combined fuel economy is rated at 5.0 L/100 km.

The 2020 Sonata Hybrid should hit Canadian order forms beginning in May....
