Hello.
We currently have a Toyota C-HR 2.0 hybrid which is the CEOs company car and she does around 35k miles a year for business. Retirement is on the horizon and we are looking to buy a new , medium sized, premium SUV and the NX450h+ is currently sitting top of the list. Comfort, refinement, particularly the ride as I have neck issues and the CEO has back issues , comfortable electric seats, adequate performance, plenty of tech, good economy and long term reliability are on quite a long list. Other contenders are Volvo XC40/60 , Alfa Tonale (not exactly apples for apples on that one but it’s a nice looking car and drives ok).
I’ve got a test drive booked next week in the NX450h+ Sport model so hoping to have a better idea then. We aren’t looking for a car until mid to end of 2023 so no rush and happy to wait for what may be our last “new car”.
interested in owners thoughts on the latest generation and any foibles or issues they have (C-HR nearly all have dash rattles unless you get the dealer to fit something under the speaker grills) , OEM wiper blades squeak , rear discs rust badly if you only drive in town or low mileage. Etc. Saying that the C-HR is a great car but the seats are just not long enough in the base (we’re both tall) and we want fully electric adjustment on both seats.
A plug in will do probably 50/60% of our journeys if we can get 30/35 miles so interested to hear what range owners get , and overall economy. The C-HR is doing 51/52 mpg with a lot of MWay (which doesn’t give the best economy)
Looking forward to hearing what owners views are
Andy
