Chauffeuring company buying Lexus hybrids in London
CHAUFFEUR-FIRST INTRODUCES LEXUS HYBRIDS AT THE TOP END


The first major executive chauffeur fleet in the UK to switch its cars to hybrid power - that's the claim of Chauffeur-First. The London-based company says it's the emergence of Lexus Hybrid Drive technology and the readiness of its customers to think green that has enabled it to start transforming its operations.



Chauffeur-First has already taken on 18 Lexus GS 450h performance saloons, all top-of-the-range SE-L models, with two of the new LS 600h luxury saloons due for delivery and a further five GS 450h. The company hopes to order another 20 Lexus hybrid cars before the end of the year. Its existing 62-vehicle fleet includes BMW, Mercedes and Audi executive models, as well as conventionally powered Lexus GS 300s. Chauffeur-First intends to phase these out and replace them with Lexus hybrids, retaining only a contingent of Chrysler Grand Voyager MPVs for use when extra capacity is required.

LEXUS is a BORING car company, who's best model cost 100K, looks like a bloated Camry, and would put a 9 year old who lost his Ritalin to sleep. Lexus's new tag-line: "Lexus...'Narcolepsy on Wheels.'"
