Trying to convince people to buy an EV over traditional ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicles is a challenge all on its own, but after driving the Lexus RX450h+ for a week, my stance on PHEVs being the best solution to convince people about the benefits of an EV still stands.
This isn’t the first PHEV I’ve tested this year, it comes after the Lexus TX550h+ and the Mazda CX-90. But this third time’s a charm because I’m much more educated about how PHEVs work in general by offering that hybrid drive power of all-electric and gas power. It doesn’t come cheap, though, with the 2024 Lexus RX450h+ PHEV Luxury starting at $72,610.
