The love affair with batteries begins as a child. By the time your fifth Christmas rolls around, the moment you unwrap an electronic gadget your mind is already processing the thought, “Santa better have brought batteries…” Not only does that relationship continue as an adult, but what was once a simple tryst - “Mom, I need batteries for my Coleco Football” - has turned into a full-on romance (with every associated frustration) of our beloved battery-powered gizmos.
Like, for instance, the Lexus GS450h. One of the sleepiest of sleeper sedans, its batteries aren’t responsible for keeping it running, only for supplementing the power of its 3.5-liter V6. And while hybrids have generally left us tepid, after a week with the Lexus, we’re almost ready to ask automakers for another Christmas gift: Put batteries in everything, and do it just like this.
