Lexus RX450h+ 2024.

Lexus has unveiled the 2024 Lexus RX450h+ hybrid crossover.

Lexus, the luxury division of Toyota, has been a pioneer in the hybrid car market since 2005 when it introduced the world’s first luxury hybrid SUV, the RX 400h.

Since then, the RX has been one of the most popular and best-selling models in its segment, combining comfort, performance and efficiency in a stylish and versatile package.

Now Lexus is taking its super-popular SUV to the next level with the launch of the first plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of the 2024 RX, dubbed the RX 450h+.

It promises to be the most expensive in the lineup and promises to deliver more power, range and features than ever before while maintaining the iconic design and engineering quality that the Japanese brand has taught its customers.

The fifth and current generation of RX, which debuted in 2022, moved to the newer TNGA modular platform after the next-generation NX, which arrived in 2021.

Lexus builds on the aggressive and angular styling of the previous RX with a new body design.

Starting this year, the fifth generation will offer a wider choice of electrified powertrains, with the RX 450h+ becoming the Japanese luxury brand’s top offering as the first RX plug-in hybrid.

The 2024 Lexus RX 450h+ will be offered in eight body colors ranging from timeless Eminent White Pearl and sophisticated Cloudburst Gray to charming Iridium.

Additional shades include vibrant Matador red, adventurous copper, elegant pearl green and alluring Nightfall.

Its design language draws attention with an organic fusion of athleticism and elegance. The iconic design and seamlessly integrated front grille exude strength and sophistication.

This look is standard 21-inch 20-spoke alloy wheels finished in premium dark metallic, highlighting the vehicle’s low center of gravity and extended stance.

As soon as you enter the cabin, you will be greeted by a sanctuary of luxury and convenience that will satisfy the driver’s every whim.

Thoughtful placement of key controls and information, combined with a minimalist layout, creates an intuitive and immersive driving environment.

The interior, wrapped in perforated semi-aniline leather, pampers occupants with its exquisite craftsmanship, enveloping them in a world of plush comfort and elegance.

Power heated and ventilated seats, standard on all models, are suitable for all climates, providing the ideal temperature for any journey.

Last but not least, the ambient lighting system beautifully wraps the interior in a warm glow, enhancing the overall ambience.

The car is equipped with an advanced memory system that allows multiple drivers to personalize and save their settings, ensuring that every ride with the 450h+ is precisely tailored to their preferences.

For those who crave immersive sound, the 21-speaker Mark Levinson Premium Surround Sound System provides in-car entertainment close to audiophile sound quality.

In addition, the thoughtfully designed front seats provide easy access, ergonomic support and unrivaled comfort even on the longest journeys.

In addition, standard 40/20/40 power rear seats provide versatile interior configuration options to meet a variety of load requirements.

The RX 450h+ is equipped with everything you need to keep everyone connected on the road.

With strategically placed USB ports throughout the vehicle, including two USB Type-C outlets in the rear, staying up to date and connected while driving in the RX has never been easier.

The latest addition to the Lexus RX line-up boasts an impressive combination of a high-capacity lithium-ion battery and a 2.5-liter inline-4 engine that is shared with the NX model. Acceleration to 97 km / h takes only 6.2 seconds.

With an estimated range of 56 km on electric power alone, the RX 450h+ allows drivers to make the most of their daily commute without the need for an internal combustion engine, providing a greener and greener driving experience.

In addition, the RX 450h+ features a 3.3kW Level 1 car charging cable for 120V outlets and a Type 1 outlet for home and public charging, providing convenient charging options for all users.
