The Lexus Hybrid Bicycle is a New Way to Passionately Pursue Perfection
Michael Hines — April 29, 2010 — Autos
The passionate pursuit of perfection just got a little more painful with the Lexus hybrid bicycle. Perfection doesn't just live right down the street after all.
The Lexus hybrid bicycle looks beautiful. This bike has a "240-Watt electric motor powered by a 25.9-volt lithium battery pack," which means it can do the pedaling when we come to hills. The bike is only meant as a promotional tool, though--Lexus is sponsoring the Great British Bike Ride this year.
I really wish the Lexus hybrid bicycle was going into production. Looks like I'll never bike again.
