Our Verdict
A highly recommended example of the Lexus NX hybrid. The vehicle presents a consistent record of passing MOT tests without a single defect recorded over the last four years.
When viewing this specific 2.5L hybrid, verify that the hybrid battery health has been checked, as this is a core component of the Lexus driving experience. While the MOT history shows no mechanical failures, you should ask the seller for evidence of a service history to complement the clean MOT record.
During your test drive, listen for any unusual noises from the suspension, as anti-roll bar issues are a common failure point for this model across the wider fleet. Given the low mileage, check the condition of the tyres and wiper blades, as these are the most frequent failure points for the NX model in aggregate data.
As a hybrid electric vehicle, the NX is designed for efficiency, particularly in urban environments. You can expect competitive fuel economy compared to non-hybrid SUVs of similar engine size.
Tax and insurance costs will vary based on your specific profile, but the 2494cc engine and hybrid status typically place it in a moderate insurance group. Maintenance costs for Lexus models are generally predictable, though you should budget for specialist hybrid system inspections.
Focus your inspection on the items most likely to cause MOT failures in this model: tyres, windscreen wipers, and the anti-roll bar. Although this vehicle has had no recorded defects, these are the statistically most common issues for the NX.
Check the tread depth and sidewall condition of the tyres, and ensure the wiper blades operate smoothly without streaking. It is also worth inspecting the underside for any signs of wear to the suspension components, specifically the anti-roll bar, to ensure it remains in the condition suggested by the clean MOT history.
This 2017 Lexus NX, finished in black, has covered 47,319 miles as of its most recent MOT in June 2025. The mileage is notably lower than the model average of 7,286 miles per year, which would suggest a total of approximately 58,000 miles for its age. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, showing zero defects or advisories since its first recorded test in 2022.
The Lexus NX shows a strong aggregate MOT pass rate of 92.0% across nearly 30,000 analysed vehicles.
