If you are braked by the 2.4-liter 279hp turbo engine overhaul of the Lexus NX350F Sport Edition, then be sure to pay attention to the NX450h+F Sport Edition of this PHEV, with external plug-in function, full power state can be driven in pure electric mode for 82km, luxury version is 86km, most people commute to and from work can achieve zero carbon environmental protection. If you are unfortunate enough to oversleep, the NX450h+ accelerates at 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.3 seconds of high-quality performance (oil-electric mode, non-pure electrical state), which may save the late pay penalty.

Many people may say that my parking lot can not be installed wall hanging charging seat, it does not matter, NX450h + with the car standard with the portable travel charging line, just look for 110V sockets to charge, about 10 hours can be charged from weak current to full power, the next day continue to commute to work in pure electric mode zero carbon discharge. Because the maximum current of NX450h+ travel charge is only 12A, which is roughly equivalent to the operating power of the general household microwave oven, it has not yet reached the high energy consumption level of the air conditioner, and the maximum load of the household 110V power supply can reach more than 15A, so there is no need to worry too much about power jumping or charging safety.

If you have the opportunity to use the exclusive parking space for electric vehicles in public parking lots, it only takes 2 hours to replenish from weak current to full power, which is still very convenient for people running business, and still has the opportunity to run a day's trip in pure electric mode. In addition, NX450h+ supports MyRoom mode, no need to start the engine, you can also charge while using air conditioning and sound system, when moving the motorcycle or mobile hotel is not a problem, drive to where to sleep where to sleep. If there is a 110V power supply when camping, of course, you can also blow cold and heating in the car, and then sleep well with sleeping music, and set up a cooking tent outdoors.

If the MyRoom function is missing, you can only open the window to feed the mosquitoes to listen to the requiem, and sleepless all night like Princess Dulando. NX450h+ does not support the HVDC fast charging system, fortunately there is no fast charging station in some areas is not popular, NX450h+ even if it supports the fast charging system, the owner may not use it once a month or even half a year. You must also take a special detour, and you may have to queue up after arriving at the fast charging station to enjoy a fast charge, and the detour time is longer than the charging time.

The degree of trouble is very high, the return on investment is very low, it is better to unplug the fast charge to save money and save trouble, really only pure electric vehicles need fast charging system, in some areas PHEV is still more practical, taking into account energy saving, environmental protection, tranquility, convenience, high endurance, as for performance, NX450h+ is not a fuel-saving lamp. As the question NX450h+ accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.3 seconds, it is true that the NX450h+ sprint strength is really on par with golfGTI. Although the RX450hF Sport is priced about one year higher than the GolfGTI, considering that the RX450h is a luxury SUV, the space, function, texture, and configuration are all available.

It can be lightly off-road, can cope with camping needs, can take a family of five, can also travel 82 kilometers in pure electric mode, and is very fuel-efficient, very quiet, very comfortable, so great luxury. Because of the outstanding performance, many small partners have been knocking on the bowl, hoping to introduce Toyota RAV4PHEV (0 to 100 km / h only 6 seconds), yes, and NX450h + the same external plug-in oil-electric composite power system, unfortunately this power cost is not low, the recent responsibility to Lexus is very good, and NX450h+ did not offer a sky-high price to let people directly sell faith.

Imagine that the best LSUV deployed at present is the Mercedes-Benz GRC, if the acceleration performance is to be on par with the NX450h+, it is bound to look at the Mercedes-Benz GRC3004Matic. GLC300 is not only priced higher than NX450h+, but also the configuration is not as luxurious as NX450h+F Sport Edition, nor can it be charged, pure electric driving, fuel consumption is even worse, the only two advantages, probably mercedes-Benz this brand, and GLC's exhaust capacity is 2.0, which is cheaper than the NX450h+2.5 rating.

If you really want to discuss the issue of manipulation, you can only say that the major overhaul NX has been reborn, although it will not win, but it will not necessarily lose in some aspects. Yes, the emergence of NX450h+, will have the opportunity to change the small partner's view and acceptance of PHEV, once you fall in love with NX450h+ absolutely can not quit, will be indulged in pure electric driving quiet, comfortable, agile, economical, and enjoy excellent driving fun, completely different from the use of the past oil car, a car multi-functional, camping, business, outdoor, urban high-speed, low-speed are suitable, I can't think of any reason to refuse NX450h+ in addition to not being able to afford.

Then again, some areas already had PHEV before, so why didn't it cause any ripples? Two reasons buried the talent of PHEV. First, most PHEV lack features other than energy saving, such as Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV performance is not good enough, pure driving range is ordinary, the control is not particularly strong, the model generation is not novel enough, players prefer to choose Ford Kuga 2.0T. Second, although Volvo has introduced many PHEV models, the high price deters small partners, and if the price of PHEV cannot compete with traditional oil vehicles, there is no incentive to attract small partners to try.

At the price of volvo PHEV models, you can buy models that are more enjoyable to drive, and choose PHEV for pure electricity, energy saving, and environmental protection, and the result is of course that the probability of suddenness is there and the normality is very low. Before the PHEV did not sell seats is not unexpected, not to mention the car does not eat oil, change to electricity is really environmentally friendly. Even Lexus consumers are no strangers to Hybrid, and most people don't know how good, fast, and convenient Lexus PHEV is.

If you are interested in NX450h+, be sure to note this. If you are a private car, I believe that you will not choose the low-spec NX450h+ Deluxe Edition, because the 14-inch large touch screen has shrunk to 9.8 inches, the 20-inch aluminum wheels have also shrunk to 18 inches, many high-end configurations such as wide-angle electronic rearview mirrors, head-up displays, ventilated seats, 360-degree surround view images, digital dashboards, satellite navigation, intelligent headlights, turn assist lights, F Sport package, Sport version shock absorbers, electronic variable damping... All gone, simply put, there is no sense of superiority at all, basically NX450h+ deluxe version is for leasing, business use, business needs, organ model environmental protection image official car and set, the general small partner bought will really fall yang.

The same is the F sport version, NX350 has an electric panoramic sunroof, NX450h + only a few smaller driver's seat electric sunroof, many owners have planned to drive the new NX450h + F sport version to go camping, less panoramic sunroof there is no starry sky night view to accompany the sleep. Another interesting configuration setting of the Lexus NX series is the flagship version with the top 17 dual speaker sound system, as well as the intelligent parking system, which is a fully automatic parking system with steering wheel, throttle and gear without driver control, which is more technological than the general parking assistance system.

However, the above two high-end configurations, F Sport Edition are not configured. The NX450h+F Sport Edition, which has a higher power level and is more quiet, does not have a top-level audio, but the NX350h flagship version has these two configurations, which feels a bit ironic. However, the setting of the original Japanese factory is like this, if you want to be flexible, you may have to wait for the new model next year, or wait for a small modification.

NX450h+ Although it can be mildly off-road, but the rear axle only has electric motor output, the engine power can not be conveyed to the rear axle, the front and rear torque distribution is not as good as NX350, and there is no steep slope mitigation system, personally feel that it is not bad, anyway, no one dares to open the NX steep slope above 30 degrees, the problem is not the steep slope mitigation system, but the chassis height, off-road angle and tires, more than this system is not the main card, can not always guard the health Oh. Careful driving on off-road sections is the best policy.

Finally, in terms of power alone, although the numbers are exactly the same, the power system is completely different, just a plurality of + Plus symbols, many small partners may not understand the mystery of the basket. NX450h+ is an external plug-in composite power PHEV, with a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated gasoline engine, the lithium battery capacity is much larger than the RX450h, and the acceleration performance is also relatively fast.

As for the RX450h is still the standard 288 volt UHV Hybrid system, with a 3.5-liter V6 naturally aspirated engine, no external plug-in function, pure electric driving distance is very short, commuting can not be used as a pure electric vehicle, the use of poor performance of nickel-metal hydride batteries, comprehensive horsepower 313hp Although relatively large, but 0 to 100 km / h acceleration strength only reached 7.7 seconds, although the fun is high, but the body weight of 2.2 metric tons, the handling performance is not as good as the NX450h+, which is overhauled. I believe that after the advent of NX450h+, the small partner will no longer look at RX450h, not only expensive and can not be long-distance pure electric driving, NX450h+ more PlugIn external plug function is really much worse.
