The NX450h+ plug-in hybrid gets 37 miles of electric driving range and shares the 304-hp, 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with the Toyota RAV4 Prime.
The PHEV builds up on the NX350h hybrid with a more robust electric drive that allows longer and more often electric power use.
It's very quiet when it uses the electric drive and it transitions to gas power seamlessly.
It takes three hours to charge the battery using 240-volt power.
Handling is responsive though short of sporty, while the ride is firm but mostly comfortable.
The hybrid's brake pedal is a bit touchy and takes some getting used to.
The snazzy cabin is impeccably furnished but narrow, and outward visibility is hampered by thick roof pillars and small windows, particularly toward the rear.
The touchscreen infotainment screen is straightforward.
We're not fans of the electronic interior door releases, unintuitive gear selector, and low center dash vents.

Lexus also added two USB type-C ports to the front console.
