The production version of the hydrogen-powered Lexus is expected to debut in 2020. The crossover will be based on the hydrogen sedan Toyota Mirai, which became the company's first production model to use a powertrain based on hydrogen fuel cells. The Mirai's engine produces 153 hp, and the sedan accelerates to 100 km/h in 9.6 seconds.
At the same time, Uittenhoven emphasized that the hydrogen Lexus will be significantly more powerful and will be able to deliver at least 300 hp, so that the dynamics match the premium image of the brand.
