The 2025 Lexus RX 450h+ Plug-in Hybrid features a 18.1 kWh traction battery delivering an official WLTP electric range of 65 km, paired with a 304 HP powertrain producing 25 g/km CO₂ and 1.1 L/100km fuel consumption and 6.6 kW AC charging.
18.1 kWh gross
With 18.1 kWh storage, the battery packaging is optimized to balance electric range with reduced vehicle curb weight, preserving luggage space and internal agility.
While official WLTP laboratory figures state 65 km, drivers should anticipate approximately ~60 km in temperate urban commutes, and around ~42 km during sub-zero motorway trips with cabin heating.
6.6 kW AC Onboard
A standard 11/22 kW home wallbox will replenish the pack in approximately ~2.5 hours. Fast DC charging is not equipped on this model, meaning charging is best suited for overnight domestic wallboxes or workplace destination chargers.
| Specification | Official Homologated Value | European Segment Context |
|---|---|---|
| WLTP Electric Range | 65 km | Standard Commuter |
| Battery Capacity | 18.1 kWh gross | Segment Standard |
| Total System Power | 304 HP | High Performance |
| Charging Capabilities | 6.6 kW AC (AC Only) | Domestic / Workplace AC |
| CO₂ Emissions & Fuel Consumption | 25 g/km • 1.1 L/100km | Euro 6e-bis Compliant |
Daily Commute & Efficiency Verdict: For European motorists with typical round-trip daily commutes of ~30–40 km, the Lexus RX 450h+'s 65 km electric range can comfortably cover ~1.9 days of routine driving on pure electricity before triggering the combustion engine.
Euro 6e-bis & Corporate Fleet Impact: With an official rating of 25 g/km CO₂ and 1.1 L/100km fuel consumption, this vehicle benefits from competitive tax brackets across major European markets. Under revised 2026/2027 Euro 6e-bis Utility Factor calculations, high electric range models like this retain substantially lower Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) and company car tax liabilities compared to older generation PHEVs.
With 65 km electric range and 25 g/km CO₂, this model qualifies for an estimated UK BiK rate of 8% (Standard). Shorter range PHEVs face stricter testing utility factors under 2026/2027 fleet rules.
