Stats on NX 450h+ Predicted EV Range
Ken R replied to Harrier Man's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
Figures continue with a downward trend as latest overnight charge showing a predicted 49/40.7. -
About to buy a 350h
Ken R replied to Bradders67's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
Spot weld issue was confined to cars manufactured in a particular period (late 2021/early 2022). I have RF tyres on my 450h and can't say that I find any tyre roar intrusive to the point of it being annoying. If there are any niggles with ownership it generally relates to the Lexus Link app which could be more robust than it is. -
Coldest night of the year so far but all doors opened easily having had the revised handles fitted.

4.1 miles/Kwh in the summer is impressive. Best I've achieved is c3.4. -

A further reduction after the latest overnight charge is indicating a predicted 49.8/41.9. -

The traction battery will have assisted the ICE over 6 miles of your journey and hence the ev range reduces by this figure. -
Insurance renewal - pleasant surprise
Ken R replied to BillSt's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
I can confirm that the car isn't garaged but parked on a private driveway. -

Give Aviva Online Premium a go. I have a NX450H, fully comp, 2 named drivers, £250 compulsory excess, no voluntary excess for £348. Been with them for 3 years. -

Spindle grill upgrade for 2018 NX300h?
Ken R replied to Euroskank's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
It is my car in the Lexus Edinburgh showroom on the day of delivery (March 2022). It is indeed a 450h Premium Plus in Graphite Black with Hazel interior. -
Spindle grill upgrade for 2018 NX300h?
Ken R replied to Euroskank's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
I owned a NX300h for 4 years covering c32k miles and recorded mileage and fuel used from day one. Overall result was c41 mpg with vast differences between summer motoring and winter. Expect low to mid 30s Oct-Mar and low to mid 40s Apr-Sept. -
Stats on NX 450h+ Predicted EV Range
Ken R replied to Harrier Man's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
I agree. I have just completed a series of inner city journeys today and the traction battery was depleted by 25 miles which is a new low in 20 months of ownership. Temperature plays a huge factor as its hovered around zero for most of the day and therefore internal heating/seats/steering wheel all on. Thankfully I pay a low Kwh rate off peak so its still cheaper to run on electric rather than petrol. Car currently indicates 2.6 miles / Kwh - I wish!!! -

Latest overnight charge and the prediction down again to 51.2/43.5. Sub zero temperatures overnight. Actual against predicted yesterday was a new low of 28 against the predicted 45.6. This was particularly disappointing given journeys didn't involve high speed motorway elements, however temperatures hovered around zero for much of the time. -
Car seat stretching
Ken R replied to Richolf's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
I've done over 16000 miles and the seat still looks like new. -
Warranty on purchase of used car
Ken R replied to Nikhil Kumar's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
Congratulations Nikhil on your purchase and happy motoring. Provided you get your NX serviced by a Lexus dealership annually or at 10000 mile intervals you will have warranty cover until 2027 (the 10th anniversary of the vehicle) or 100000 miles (whatever comes first). -
Yes Alan. I thought I would be able to determine the time but was only offered a standard 20 mins. Worked perfectly though.

Tyre pressures have dropped
Ken R replied to AlanDL's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
Below zero overnight here but no issues with tyre pressure. -
Below zero here overnight but no issues with the doors so hopefully the revised handles have solved the previous issues. Have had the car for 20 months now and used the remote climate for the first time this morning. Car beautifully warm and windows defrosted!

Ken R replied to Harrier Man's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
Last night's overnight charge in temperatures of minus 2 predicting 51.3/45.6. Battery was 100% depleted. Actual from the previously indicated 44.9 was a miserable 31. -
20inch Runflats vs 18inch non-runflats
Ken R replied to Richard77's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
I have covered over 16000 miles on 20inch run-flats and have no complaints regarding ride quality or noise levels. Previously ran a NX300H on 18inch no run flats and honestly think they are very comparable overall. Downside is cost of replacement of run flats. Had to replace one tyre recently and it cost £364. That said my journey was uninterrupted! -

Ken R replied to Harrier Man's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h+ Club
Yes and it's even better with some of the off-peak tariffs where the Kwh rate is averaging 9p. -

User name or password incorrect
Ken R replied to Malcolm Kemp's topic in Lexus UX250h / UX300h / UX300e Club
Agreed. I had exactly the same issue a few weeks ago on my NX and resolved it by resetting the password using lower case only.
