With a slew of sensors and CPUs, the 2010 Lexus RX450h can pretty much drive itself. Want to go somewhere? Sit down in the driver’s seat, use the Remote Touch device (a.k.a. “mouse”) to tell the crossover where you want to go, and follow the easy-as-store-bought-pie instructions to your destination.

For those concerned about fuel economy and comfort, the almost-autonomous nature of the RX450h is nice, but certainly doesn’t offer a tremendous amount of ability to control how much fuel you burn moving down the street. As it turns out, this is a feature, not a bug. Find out why after the jump.
