Lexus Energy Consumption I’m confused - I have an April ‘22 NX 450h+ Takumi and yesterday I went for a trip of just over 100 miles and when I got back the EV range was 0 i.e. the battery was down to its minimum. I charged it up fully with my EV Hive charger, as supplied as part of the car purchase. The EV range indicated on my Lexus app. was 51.7 miles or 50.1 miles with A/C. The charge value, as indicated by the Hive app., was 13.9 kWh. The predicted range of about 50 miles has been experienced many, many times over the past 18 months - at least 45 miles on a regular basis. The miles per kWh display on the dashboard has been 2.6 for at least 6 months but when I divide 50 by 13.9 I get 3.6 miles/kWh! Even if I divide 45 by 13.9 I get 3.2 miles/kWh. I can only get to 2.6 if I assume 18.1 kWh (the total battery capacity) for 47 miles. The battery is never fully drained so I can only assume there is something that I’ve missed. Can someone please help me find a flaw in my calculations. Many thanks Brian Wiseman

Yes, me too last night. My wife couldn’t get into the passenger door. I thought that the locking customisation had switched to driver door only. Passenger door would open from inside but opening rear doors was not possible - I couldn’t reach the inside release from the front seats. I plan to raise this with my dealer asap. My 450h+ was delivered April 22 so presumably built ~Jan 22 so maybe Polish findings will apply in UK.
