2021 Lexus NX 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · T6 CJK

Fuel economy for the 2.5-litre NX 250h hybrid is typically in the mid-40s mpg in real-world mixed driving, which compares favourably against diesel rivals of similar size. As a Euro 6 AP hybrid, this vehicle will attract a lower BiK rate if used as a company car, and depending on the exact trim it should sit in VED band A or B due to its sub-120 g/km CO2 output, making annual road tax inexpensive. Insurance for the NX typically falls in groups 28-34 depending on trim, so premiums will be moderate-to-high for this class of vehicle. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance should fall in the region of £1,600-£2,000 for a typical owner covering around 8,000-10,000 miles per year.

Although this particular vehicle has no recorded MOT failures, the model-level aggregate data highlights three common failure areas worth checking proactively. Tyres should be inspected for uneven wear, as this is the single most common MOT failure reason across the NX range and can indicate alignment or suspension issues. The windscreen wiper mechanism should be tested for full sweep coverage, and the anti-roll bar bushes should be checked for deterioration by rocking the vehicle at each corner and listening for clonking noises over speed bumps. Given the 40,168 recorded miles, also inspect brake disc wear front and rear, the condition of the hybrid system warning lights on startup, and ensure the multifunction infotainment screen and reversing camera are operating correctly, as these electrical items can develop faults independent of MOT criteria.
