The Lexus NX is the first brand to come as a plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV). The available NX 450h+ utilizes a 2.5-liter gas engine and electric motor system for optimal power and fuel economy. You can even switch between gas, hybrid, and EV modes as you drive. The NX 450h+ can travel up to 36 miles in the all-electric range. This SUV also features an onboard 3.3-kilowatt charger with an available expedited charger for faster power restoration.
