Our Verdict
A well-presented Lexus RX 450h from Sept
This particular RX benefits from an unusually clean MOT history — no advisories at any of the five tests — which removes many of the usual negotiation points buyers rely on when haggling on used SUVs. That said, a clean MOT record only confirms the vehicle passed minimum roadworthiness standards; it does not evidence mechanical condition beyond the components tested. When viewing, prioritise verification of the hybrid system health, as MOT testing does not cover battery state, inverter function, or hybrid system diagnostics — request a Lexus specialist or main dealer health check covering the hybrid components specifically.
For the broader RX 450h model, common wear points include rear suspension bushes, rear brake discs (the regen system can lead to corrosion from infrequent use), and 12V auxiliary battery failure. Given the mileage here, inspect the tyres carefully for even wear — the model aggregate data lists tyres as the second most common failure reason across the 17,892 RX examples analysed. Service history should show Lexus or specialist hybrid-trained servicing, ideally with confirmation that the hybrid system coolant and inverter coolant have been changed at the recommended intervals. Negotiation leverage is limited by the clean MOT record, so focus on tyre condition, brake disc surface corrosion, and any hybrid diagnostic trouble codes as your primary bargaining points.
The Lexus RX 450h with the 3.5-litre V6 hybrid powertrain typically returns around 35-40 mpg in real-world driving, though owners report figures closer to 30-35 mpg in mixed conditions. Fuel costs will depend heavily on driving style and journey type, with the hybrid system most efficient in town. As a Euro 6 DG vehicle registered between 2017 and 2020, it attracts a standard VED rate of approximately £150-£170 per year after the initial premium has expired, and remains exempt from the London ULEZ daily charge.
Insurance for the RX 450h typically falls into group 38-42E depending on trim, meaning premiums in the £500-£900 range for experienced drivers. Servicing through Lexus main dealers is priced higher than mainstream rivals but intervals are generous at 12 months/10,000 miles. Combined estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance sit in the £2,400-£2,900 bracket, which is competitive for a premium large SUV of this calibre.
Given the completely clean MOT record, the usual inspection checklist based on failure history is less critical here — but the model aggregate data highlights headlamp, tyre, and suspension arm issues as the most common MOT failures across the RX range. Check both headlamp units for condensation, lens crazing, and alignment, as replacement units are costly. Inspect all four tyres for brand consistency, tread depth across the full width (not just the centre), and any uneven wear patterns that might suggest alignment or suspension geometry issues. Even though no suspension advisories appear on this specific vehicle's MOT history, the model data shows suspension arms are a common failure point, so visually inspect the bushes and check for any knocking over speed bumps.
Beyond the MOT-relevant items, have the hybrid system professionally scanned for diagnostic trouble codes — particularly regarding the high-voltage battery State of Health, the hybrid inverter, and the transaxle. Test the engine start sequence to confirm a smooth transition between electric and petrol modes, and listen for any unusual whining or rattling from the hybrid drive area when stationary in electric mode. Check the rear brake discs for surface corrosion, as the regenerative braking system can leave them prone to rust buildup. Finally, verify all electronic features work correctly, including the infotainment, climate control, electric tailgate, and any driver assistance systems, as repairs outside warranty can be expensive on premium Lexus models.
This 3.5-litre V6 hybrid Lexus RX in grey has covered 83,656 miles over nearly seven years, equating to roughly 11,950 miles annually — moderately above the 7,845-mile model average but still well within reasonable territory for a vehicle of this size and use case. Five MOT tests have all resulted in passes with no advisories or defects recorded, which is notable for a vehicle of this age and mileage. The 3,456cc hybrid powertrain pairs with Euro 6 DG emissions status, making it ULEZ-compliant for low-emission zones including the London Ultra Low Emission Zone.
Across 17,892 Lexus RX vehicles analysed, the model achieves a 93.8% MOT pass rate, which sits above the UK average and reflects Lexus's strong reputation for build quality. The most common failure points are headlamps, tyres, and suspension arms — relatively minor and inexpensive items.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2019 model year cars.
- Rear Motor Cable Corrosion ("Cablegate")Serious
On AWD hybrid models, the high-voltage cable connector to the rear motor is prone to severe corrosion from road salt and moisture. If it fails, the car may lose AWD capability and display a hybrid system fault.
- Power Tailgate Strut or Spindle FailureModerate
The motorised tailgate can become slow, jerky, or fail to latch properly as the powered struts and spindle mechanisms wear with age.
- Front Lower Arm Bush WearModerate
The RX is heavy, and its front lower-arm bushes can soften or tear, leading to vague steering, inner tyre wear, and a dull thump over poor surfaces.
