The project has planted over 30,000 trees all over the country, with the support of Grow-Trees. In continuation of this vision towards neutrality, by 2035 Lexus will line up 100 per cent battery electric cars. The Lexus hybrid electric battery is covered under warranty for 8 years or 1,60,000 km which helps to reduce carbon footprint for the long run.
