Thinking of buying the 2011 Lexus HS?

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2011 Lexus HS; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 2011 Lexus HS, here are the facts that matter.

A buyer's checks

Owners filed 3 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, exterior lighting and parking brake; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

The figures, translated

The 2.4L 4-cylinder hybrid, paired with an automatic (CVT), drives it. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 21 litres, from its 6.9 L/100 km rating. In energy, every 100 km costs about $10.70 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$1,950 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Space, size and seats

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Its 340 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

A good match for

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

Drive it on your own roads

A test week in the HS tells you more than any review. Rent the HS first, and buy only if it fits your life. A week with the HS answers more than any brochure.

Running costs

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $10.70 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Year and trim

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
