Well done. Finally a Lexus review without mentioning a BMW.
Thank you tectorama ❤️Lexus is a very different car and only those who know this, would truly appreciate its beauty, elegance and class. A very warm welcome to my channel ❤️
Yeah. My friends are German auto die hard. They always argue with me that Bimmers and Mercs always outperform any Lexus. To them it’s all about driving performance. They don’t realise that to others, there’s more to life than 0-60, cornerning, launch control, blah blah blah. Like for me, reliability and reasonable maintenance are the most important. I don’t need a car that is extremely fast in everything. You can’t drive that much fast anyway on most public roads and I’m not always on the motorway.
@@JanBanJoovi-ol1qvI agree, not only is Lexus incredibly reliable with the proper maintain, it has more than enough power to make it fun to drive.
2 good cars dude, I’m a FSport Lexus driver myself and I have to say they have plenty of power for what they are, and reliability and build quality the Germans can only dream of matching.
I had a bmw 4 from 2016 and know a 300h fsport from 2013. Acceleration, handlin, control and the quality is way better with the bmw even with less power. lexus is similar to mercedes. Smooth and comfortable. But also not on the same level like a mercedes.
But it safes my money and i can trust the engine. This is why japanese cars are the best in the world.
As a man I much prefer reviews conducted by women. I'm 52 years old now and I'm not interested in racing around everywhere.
I'm looking for nice cars that have a bit of performance if you need it, but that return good fuel mileage and are comfortable and reliable, having a grandchild soon, so need to be sensible.
Women are much more objective when it comes to this.
Awesome review of this Lexus! probably my next car as i'm currently driving the IS250.
I purched one just 10 day's ago. What a car!!! Quiet, fast great comfort and cheap in use. Great review by the way 😉
Thank you so much Valentino ❤️What a great taste, I wish there were more Lexuses in Switzerland, so much elegance and class ❤️
Indeed, this car diservs more also because a quality of build and durbility and Red Carpet Treatment. And..its sooo relaxing to drive but offcourse can go werry fast to...still in style and quiet..😉..💋 💋💋
A proper Grand Turismo. Travel in style with some fire under the bonnet ❤️❤️❤️
@@Valentinomagas How's that IS 309h been for you now 5 years later?
@@robovac3557 still great 🥰. No issues at all after 80000 km ( +/- 50000 ml? 🙄)..only regular maintenance.
coming from Audi's i decieded to give Lexus a go and never looked back. picking up a GS 300h F Sport on Monday after having my GS 450h for 5 years of trouble free motoring. my main comment about this video are those tight jeans! I'm in love :)
Hi Gordon, thank you. Actually, the very same decision my brother has made. Massive issues with rust in his Audi, he's always been into German cars, but all of a sudden, he just went for the Lexus and never looked back!
@@AnnaOnRoads I'm suprised about the rust issue on the Audi. In the UK it's mechanical issues with the fuel pumps on diesel engines. Sent you a couple of photos of my new GS F sport on your Instagram account. I nearly went for the RC but found the GS more practical.
I brought my 2014 is300h 2 weeks ago im using it to uber in Sydney Australia what a beautiful car to drive.
It was nice watching your review and a liked your postive review.
Hi Troy, a beautiful Lexus in a very beautiful Sydney = perfect combination. I've moved to Switzerland 3.5 years ago from Auckland, so I know and always enjoy Sydney. Time to come back for a visit...
@@AnnaOnRoads well if you come back maybe i can show you around my beautiful city in my is330h 😉
@@lovethemusic71 ;-)
Hello sir, what version of Uber do you do with it, is it Uber X ? And do you find it worthwhile in term of petrol consumption? Thanks for your input.
@@visionprods1 I had the is250 auto did between 16 and 20 mpg now I have the is300h over 2 years now does 54.6mpg summer down to 49.7 in winter big fuel and tax savings.. plus its slightly quicker
Watched your review before buying my F-Sport.
I absolutely love it. I have no complaints at all about the performance as it has surprised even me and other drivers when called upon.... and my other 'summer' car is a Z4M!
I love my IS!
Thanks for a very nice, calm and rational review! Very nice.
You had me at the word "thingy"! Fantastic!
Looking at a GS450h, waiting for this to come down in price if I can't find a low mileage and well maintained one.
What age of GS are you looking for? :) '08 era or 2015 era?
Thank you for a great presented review. Very thoughtful about your explanations and to top it off your English is beautiful much like you! Many thanks
ohh swiss roads and Lexus!!! i hope i can drive a lexus in the wonderful Switzerland!
Is it so quiet in reality?
I’m 22 and bought a BMW about 6months ago. Yes the car is fun to drive but it just gets ruined by the shadow that is poor reliability. Hopefully will be changing to either a lexus ct200h or an is300h in the very near future.
I had been following your video and see you grow. Your production are much better 1 year later. Your fashion sense louder. But along, the horde of men who adores u, not the cars you are presenting on. I still prefer the Girl in this video. :D Cheers from Singapore
Hi Kevin, thank you for being a supportive viewer 💚 I used to live in Singapore and love it there! Well Kevin, I think it's a natural part of life to change a little over time. Otherwise, wouldn't it be boring?
Although the female aspect is visible in my channel, I believe it is the combination of this along with beautiful cars as well as the landscape I show. There are plenty of other channels which show the female aspect in a lot more braver way.
I am still the same girl but I have always been the dressy kind of a girl, I wanted to start softly and more casual.
Let's see what the new year brings :-)
Happy New Years!
Hope that you have the opportunity to be back in Singapore again :)
I would love to Kevin, next year will bring a lot more travel so I am excited. I absolutely adore Singapore, would go back in a heartbeat!
Germans can't compete on quality, reliability, cost or comfort so they call it " boring"
Well said Paul :-)
I love driving the IS300h 👋😎👋
Me too
Excellent Excellent video! You'll do really well with this channel!
Enjoyed your review and I agree with your comments which confirm my own experience. It is a good car. Keep the reviews coming.
Another awsome video! Keep them coming.
This car is a quiet strength
H. B. it is has plenty of punch, a beautiful and elegant machine ❤️ just like you would expect from Lexus ❤️
Very pretty car, very pretty girl! Lexus is so elegant, I love it!!!
please review the Lexus LC 500.
I don’t get why the cup holders are positioned were the arm rest of the passenger should be.
Well produced and presented.
Thank you Steve, one of my old videos :-)
What part of Switzerland do you originate from??? And where do you drive/roadtest most?
Just subbed! Great channel here.Had a lexus have a bm trouble you going back to lexus. There is an element of reliability in life and Lexus nail that. Great looking great handling reasonable speed. I do mega miles as in 2000km in 4 days kind of mega and its just better.
Another top job! Well done :) I guess you do all the filming yourself? If you do, you do a good job with it.
Have you got your gloves yet? ;)
Thank you!!!
BTW, I love your style Girl on Swiss Road!
nice review of a quiet highly civilized car - the LEXUS way.
Another awesome video 👌😙
She sounded like French (or maybe Romansh) so maybe part of Switzerland that is close to France.
My life’s complete ❤️❤️❤️
Lexus, The most Perfect cars of industry. I Love So Much IS300H F-SPORT *(digital cluster 100% Digital)
Matches your personality :)
You like the Lexus and I like you Anna lol great review 👍🏻
In 2017 people still found hybrid a strange concept?!
Nice review 👍😎
thanks for this great review, thinking of checking one out, greetings from Ireland
Hi John, thank you so much! ❤Still one of the nicest and comfiest saloons out there!
@@AnnaOnRoads thanks for the reply appreciate it, hopefully have a test drive of one next week
@@jonwright8236 My pleasure John. Please do check in if you get a moment, I am curious to hear your thoughts. This was one of my very first videos, over 5 years ago. But my brother owns the IS and loves it.
@@AnnaOnRoads will do, I'll let you know how I get on
drive a RX450h with nice smooth V6 and i would never ever buy that 4cyl ! Instead of this better go with a used GS450H !!!
Oh yes, both have more punch. Sadly, GS is no longer being sold in Europe. We have ES replacing it.
that´s a BIG mistake of LExus , especially here in germany were we drive sometimes fast on autobahn . The GS450H and even my old RX450h are able to drive at higher speeds total quiet and can accelerate fast enough. On Autobahn there is a huge difference between these small high reving and noisy 4cyl. and Lexus´s V6 !! They definately should have left the 4cyl in the Toyota Corolla and others but a expensive Lexus deserve a V6 at minimum !!! .@@AnnaOnRoads
@@kubanskiloewe I couldn't agree more, but just a few days ago, I've had a chat with the head of Lexus for Europe. For example, in Switzerland, Lexus doesn't even have 1% of the market share. They sell about 70k units in Europe altogether. It's about demand, unfortunately. In Switzerland, Lexus is considered to be a car for old men, it's absolutely ridiculous... they don't know what they are missing.
But their new ES hybrid engine isn't too bad, I've driven this one in Spain, got a video on it as well. It's not as noisy and overall, a very smooth ride.
yesterday i saw a swiss RX450h from 2009-11 in germany....same as mine ;-) here its always the same...people say "oh nice car indeed!....(and after a few seconds) ....but its no BMW/AUDi/Mercedes . .they are dumb. I drove over 20 year s Audi and every day i step in the RX i ask myself why on earth i did´nt get notice of this brand !! ANd further more here the shit Diesel is sponsored by government....so Hybrids are exotics !! My best rusult in that heavy RX (2,2ton) was 6,5 ltr/100km in city and countryroads with max80km/h for over 400km ! normally i get 7-8ltr even with a bit autobahn with 140km/h. What a great car with much over 200000km on it. But steering wheel is out of center to the right. @@AnnaOnRoads
@@kubanskiloewe I wish that both Germany and Switzerland would realize just how good Lexus is. It's tough for Lexus to win over but let's see what the future brings. Americans have picked it up a long time ago...
I liked your video
Greetings from Sweden
Awesome!!! Did you do all your video work? If you did... it’s great. Also... always love the drone shots!
Stop sucking it up, Davie, it's fine, the filming was what it was. Editing was what it was. C'est la vie.
@@AnnaOnRoads haha.... ok.... I’ll stop. However, I was being sincere.
What year is this?
Just came here to see Anna😍
just need aftermarket pipes for more noise thats it
I dont like hybrids, and I dont like CVT's. But damn I would love to own this car.
Buy the 2.0T
love your video
lady i dont what with u. but when i need feel fast i just turn on the asc and got alot of fake horspower :)
If there’s a girl anywhere who looks more perfect in her jeans I’d love to see her
Another fabulous video as usual , you should be called the “ post girl “ as you always deliver 💯🙏❤️
Hi there can you help me out , I'm a taxi driver I'm looking to buy this car would you suggest this car for taxi "mpg" ?
You'll get a fantastic mileage out of this car. Not to mention the comfort.
@@AnnaOnRoads thank you so much what's the maximum mpg?
My pleasure Norman. Managed just under 50mpg (UK).
Hybrid is too quiet for you Girl on Swiss Road! But great video anyways! :-0
Anna, po polsku tez masz wersje
Czesc Adam, mam kilka filmow po polsku, ale akurat nie ten Lexus
f sport models better for car people
Japanese cars are dependable but boring...
But something very very un boring coming to my channel - LC 500 and LC 500h both in a very bright yellow 💛💛💛
Japanese cars are so boring though. The interior is dullness a sea of black. I tested one and it left me cold.
Try LC500. Nothing cold about that one...
Gave you a like too Anna :)
Hi Sweetie.... I Think That; on the road it's all you need.... A comfortable car to Cruise anywhere... however as you said once or more.. a bit of adrenaline never hart anyone.... Like in the Alpina cars... Wish you a nice evening A Kiss......
Girl on Swiss Roads Yes like a everydays car.... and a good one witing in a garage...( Alpina or Giulia Quadrifogluo.... or a nice Jaguar f-type ) just like that...
Good night sweetie.... 😙
😍
"I rev it out on the motorway". You can't 'rev out' a car with a CVT.
Cry
Mine arrives next week.
I hope I don't feel like a lady driving it.
What a beautiful choice, Rylan! You won't feel like a lady at all, it's such a lovely drive :-)
Nice German accent
Dobra Cobro 😊 dziękuje bardzo. Akcent polski 😉
To piękna historia jest zatem. Pozdrawiam
@@AnnaOnRoads let me educate the public on something. If you have two blonde girls and you don't know who is polish and who is german, the more beautiful is polish
Well built cars but no I don’t like the hybrids at all. Great review though.
She is so hot! Love the accent too
weirdo
Oooh that's dull
Ooooh that's not a very nice comment, is it?!
@@AnnaOnRoads The car interior - not you x
Lovely rear view.ooos so sorry review.
This is a very nice review of a very boring car : )
Is that boringly reliable , unlike a certain Porsche ?
It's not as boring an NZ, is it? ;)
