Global vehicle demand, supply chain disruptions and parts shortages caused by the COVID-19 pandemic are impacting the production and delivery time of new Lexus vehicles. Read the frequently asked questions to learn more or contact your preferred Lexus Dealer.
the FIRST LEXUS PLUG-IN HYBRID has arrived
For over 15 years, Lexus has pioneered electrification technology. The result? A lower emission vehicle that marries power, efficiency and luxury with every drive. Introducing the Lexus NX 450h+ medium SUV: the first Lexus model to harness the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) powertrain.
Lexus NX 450h+ is the newest expression of a commitment to refined innovation; this is Lexus Electrified.
Confidently reimagined, intuitively connected.

High performance, less tailpipe emissions
Lexus NX 450h+ delivers a class-leading all-electric driving range, low fuel consumption and exhilarating performance. The Plug-In Hybrid Electric (PHEV) powertrain combines Lexus Hybrid performance with stunning Electric Vehicle (EV) capability.
It delivers a best-in-class EV range of up to 87km11, fuel efficiency with consumption from 1.3 litres per 100 kilometres12 and exhilarating performance with 227kW of combined power and zero to 100km/h in 6.3 seconds.
Power is supplied by Lexus Hybrid technology using a four-cylinder 2.5-litre petrol engine specially engineered for use in hybrid systems and a rechargeable 18.1kWh lithium-ion battery.
convenient charging
Lexus PHEV have Alternating Current (AC) Type 2 charging capability so you simply plug in at a power source – either at home or at the growing network of charging stations. To prevent tampering, the charging port lid lock works in coordination with door locking/unlocking.
The NX 450h+ has a highly efficient onboard charging system with a 6.6kW maximum output.
You can enjoy professional installation of a home charger13 when you purchase a Lexus NX 450h+, so you can wake up to a full charge.14

The benefits of plug-in hybrid
go further with less petrol
With a superior 87km of all-electric driving range11, the NX 450h+ uses the electric motor for a larger portion of the journey than a regular Hybrid does, reducing reliance on petrol.
Back-up when you need it
When the electric battery is running low, the vehicle switches to its Hybrid drive mode. The petrol engine is then assisted by the electric motors to power the vehicle and maintain the battery's charge level.
Reduced Emissions
Combining 15 years of pioneering Hybrid research and a default electric (EV) driving mode, has resulted in Plug-In Hybrids which can emit zero tailpipe CO₂ emissions when driving at low speeds.16
uncompromising power and safety
Plug-In Hybrids deliver exceptional responsiveness. Equipped with Lexus Safety System+4, our electrified vehicles are designed to give you greater control and peace of mind.
