I queried with my dealer what email was used so i could use the app to track progress... They told me it was not possible with a company lease order to track using the app due to 3rd party owners etc GDPR blah blah.. -

Gutted I had to take this option off mine as you can't have it with the TowBar apparently..... Will add on Front skirt when mine arrives, still got side steps though 🙂 -
EV Range after 4 years
Bish1402 replied to Bish1402's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h Club
Yes i was surprised also with the level.. Ny first one I fast charged maybe 5 or 6 times a week so was kinda expecting the battery to get trashed, but my 2nd one is always slow charged overnight, and now im about 7/8 miles down from new... Strange one... -
Having seen my Outlander 2018 EV range drop by about 25% after 4 years ( my 2015 one was also the same after 3yrs) is anyone else concerned or conscious that this will inevitably also happen to the NX450h... I am a company car driver so it doesn't concern me as will change again in 3/4 years but it would be a consideration if I was buying for sure...

Yes, bottom line is raw materials are increasing. I work in plastic and base raw materials have increased up to 65% in the last 12 months. Recycled Plastic we used to buy for £700 a tonnes is now £1100, most other grades are the same.....and we buy big volumes direct! Combine that with energy, transport costs, labour costs all on the up and it is no real surprise tbh..... We have increased our prices to our customers ( Tesco, Aldi, B&Q etc) by up to 25% in last 12mnths...... It is bonkers and it is only going to get worse!! -

Maybe too small with the sunroof option height wise..... I am 6"2 and with the Sunroof my head touches the roof, I was very close to ordering with sunroof as I never even thought of it, but by chance sat in a 350h with pano roof and then thought ...oh sh*% this is no good !!! Maybe he ordering , without testing and that is why...but like others say....who knows ...... -

The 350 are behind and taking longer for some reason... In Jan they were quoting May delivery for 450h and Sept/Oct for 350s.. Don't know why, maybe parts, maybe priority being given to the PHEVs... Who knows... -

Yes it is 100% a stupid system...... It would have costed me money to get an EV - I looked at the Merc EQC , Skoda Enyak , Merc EQB , Tesla model Y etc but as my company go on Gov guidelines for fuel, the current EV payback per mile is only £0.05p/mile ! On REAL WORLD ranges, AND home ev costs likely to go up again, I could have been paying £0.09p per mile to drive the car, but only getting £0.05p back, meaning I would loose money EVERTIME i drove the car.....That is bonkers !!! For me there is some benefit in charging as the more EV miles I do , the more I make as I can still charge £0.22p per mile, even for those EV miles, but agree , lots I know get a PHEV , and just don't ever charge it but save on TAX. -
When to Charge the 450h+ PHEV
Bish1402 replied to ABitterman's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h Club
Oh Wow, calm down .... Apologies sent... You can relax now. I was simply stating my own personal experience with using a 3 pin plug on a PHEV over many years An electric plug will fail if faulty if you use it for a phev, freezer or even a jet wash. Take care everyone. -

For me it is TAX bracket savings .... And it being a 2.5L means payback on business miles is £0.22p vs £0.15p on anything 2L and below... :). As a comparison a non PHEV of similar size and spec would cost me £450 a month in car tax.... This will be less than £140, and just going to the office I will profit £250 a month in business fuel payback 🙂 Winner winner chicken dinner -
When to Charge the 450h+ PHEV
Bish1402 replied to ABitterman's topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h Club
All the sales speach and initial reports is that it DOES run like the 300H and a self charging hybrid. I drive a Outlander and when the battery is gone I only get 30-34mpg MAX, reports of the 450H doing over 40-45mpg , with a much heavier battery suport this conclusion, if it didn't it would struggle to do 30mpg lugging around an 18kwh battery and running a 2.5L engine!
