FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  1. All

Our Lexus Plug-in Hybrid drivetrain combines the advantages of 4th generation Lexus Hybrid* and Lexus Electric Vehicle (EV) technology. The ‘plus’ in the RX 450h+ name pays tribute to the car’s extra-powerful lithium-ion battery and exceptional range in EV mode. And unlike a conventional plug-in when the battery is depleted, on the Lexus RX 450h+, it switches to highly efficient Lexus Hybrid mode and recharges the battery as you drive. 

 

EV mode

The RX 450h+’s four-mode selector ensures your journey is always smooth and fun. The EV default setting maximizes battery use, allowing you to travel distances up to about 67km (WLTP Combined). Powered by an advanced 18.1 kWh lithium-ion battery, you can enjoy near-silent and all-electric driving up to 135 km/h.

 

Acceleration on demand

In Auto EV/Hybrid mode, and depending on how hard you depress the accelerator, the powerful petrol engine will spring to life and deliver rapid linear acceleration just when you need it, letting you reach 100 km/h in a mere 6.9 seconds.

 

Chargges on the go

If you urgently need to charge your battery, for instance to enter a zero emissions zone, you can use the Battery Charging mode to top it up.

 

Experience from 2.5 million hybrids

Benefiting from our 4th generation Lexus Hybrid technology, if the battery’s charge level drops while in EV or Auto EV/Hybrid mode, the system will switch to ultra-efficient Hybrid mode, letting you enjoy full vehicle power again.

 

Plug in at home or away

For maximum EV range and performance, top up the battery at your own Lexus home charging station or at a public charging point. The Lexus Link+ app shows you the location, availability and even cost per km at stations across Europe.

** WLTP range

WLTP is an official test recorded in laboratory conditions (23°C, climate control off, on a chassis dynamometer) that enables customers to compare different BEV models based on the same criteria. All BEVs will show a difference between WLTP and actual range. While WLTP figures are standard, displayed range and efficiency will vary depending on individual factors, and understanding them can help customers fully appreciate their vehicle. 

We work hard to ensure your Lexus hybrid is a joy to drive and own. With over 500,000 Lexus hybrids on European roads today, all are built at dedicated ultramodern production plants in Japan to the exacting quality standards that consistently net Lexus hybrids reliability awards across the globe. Aside from the striking smoothness and refinement, you’ll appreciate the substantially lower running costs – not just fuel, but reduced expenditure on brakes, tyres and other components, thanks to the regenerative braking and advanced power control systems.
