Engine staying at high RPM

Hey all,
I have a 2013 Lexus CT 200h and I've noticed that at times, mostly when driving in sports mode, that the engine will stay at a high RPM even when not accelerating then it will very slowly come down to about 1000 RPM:confused:. I live in Vegas, where we usually have daily temperatures about 100 degrees Fahrenheit. I don't know if the heat has something to do with it or what. I do have the Lexus CT Injen CAI installed if that would affect anything? Im curious if anyone else has the same observations.
Thank you

Have you kept an eye on your battery charge level when this was happening? It may be your engine charging the battery, especially if you're running the A/C and the battery cooling system is working overtime.
I can't imagine that it is. Virtually all manufacturers test their cars in the extremest temp ranges, more than what virtually anyone would be in.
