    .............................................................
    This is the new Lexus NX!
    It’s the first ever plug-in hybrid from Lexus, coming with two hybrid engine options. The ‘self-charging’ NX350h has a 2.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine linked to a battery pack. This produces a total of 244hp and can be had with either front- or all-wheel-drive.
    The range-topper is the plug-in hybrid model, the NX450h+, which pairs its 2.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine with an 18kWh chargeable battery to produce a combined 309hp. This also means you will be able to drive the NX450h+ up to around 47 miles in electric-only mode.
    These hybrid engine options aren’t all that’s new with this second-gen NX. It’s been given a more aggressive look, with a huge grille dominating the front and a new LED light bar stretching the width of its boxy rear. Inside, the interior has been given a very unique design, with a ‘tazuna’ cockpit that’s meant to be very driver-focused. Stick with Mat to find out what that means!
    So, is this NX the best hybrid SUV on the market? Well, let’s see what Mat thinks!

    The petrol cover switch is inside is because in alot of countries, especially Asia, there are petrol attendants that pump petrol for you. So which means when you pump petrol you dont have to get out of your car and your doors will still be locked even when your pumping petrol. As for the plug for the Hybrid, its likely you will plug it yourself in your home hence you open from the outside.

      There is also a button on the BMW X5 45e. The reason in that case is that since it’s a PHEV, you might use EV mode exclusively for a while and not use any fuel. The fuel tank is pressurized to prevent a buildup of excess fuel vapors in the fuel tank

    @burli81 2 ปีที่แล้ว +65

    @carwow Regarding the fuel filler cap: on all plugin hybrids you have to press a button first. That is because they try to vacuum the fuel tank and this vacuum has to be released before opening. Vacuum is there because it should prolong the life of the fuel in the tank. In an odeal world you would always charge your hybrid and never use petrol. So the fuel might get old with all the oxygen and will not ignite properly.

    The reason for the fuel filler release is because with these hybrids people can often go extended periods of time without refueling and so to stop the fuel going stale they pressurise the tanks, hence the button to release the pressure before you open. At least that's what I was told about the Range Rover P400e..

    I’d go with the plug-in. Fully loaded everything between 450h and 450h+ is around $2000. Besides, here in the US, I think the plug-in variant is eligible for federal incentives of around $7500. If this is confirmed, the plug-in would be significantly cheaper and have all the capabilities of a plug-in should you need it. I am in with the 450h+ Just gotta find one.

    Regarding needing a button to open the petrol cap:
    In order not to have fuel evaporate into the atmosphere, a lot of PHEVs have pressurised petrol tanks (only slightly above atmospheric pressure). More needed in PHEVs because petrol more likely to sit there unused for ages and traditional techniques to deal with this in ICE cars require the engine to run more regularly.
    The button depressurises the tank before unlocking.
