What is the fuel consumption of the 2023 Lexus NX 350h and what savings does it offer in Canada?
The 2023 Lexus NX 350h uses a full hybrid powertrain (non-plug-in) consisting of a naturally aspirated 2.5L 4-cylinder and electric motors for a total system output of 239 hp in AWD configuration (via an independent rear electric motor, with no mechanical driveshaft). According to Natural Resources Canada, official consumption is 6.4L/100 km city, 6.7L/100 km highway, and 6.5L/100 km combined. In real Canadian conditions (including winters), practical consumption sits between 7.0 and 8.5L/100 km. For 20,000 km at $1.65/L (regular gasoline), the annual fuel cost is approximately $2,310 to $2,805 — saving $1,200 to $1,600 per year compared to a similarly sized SUV consuming 10.5L/100 km. The E-CVT transmission of the NX 350h is smooth and linear, providing superior driving comfort in urban settings. The NX 350h is the best-selling version in the NX lineup in Canada for its balance of fuel economy, performance, and entry price.
