After creating hybrid versions of its RX, LS and HS, Lexus now proudly presents its most recent accomplishment, the CT (for Creative Touring) 200h. It houses a 1.8L 4-cylinder engine and a CVT transmission – the same as what you find in this generation of the Toyota Prius. The CT’s road handling is sportier than your usual Lexus, but this vehicle also features some of the added luxuries that the brand is known for. But this time, it all comes with the same fuel economy as a Prius!

2012 Lexus CT200h: A Less Pious Prius

Good Lord, Canada can suck sometimes.
