You might think that running a premium Lexus model would be far too costly to seriously consider, but there are a few deals out there if you’re prepared to do a little research. We found this attractive personal leasing deal from Applied Leasing for the Lexus NX SUV, that requires a reasonable initial deposit and payments of just £296 per month. That’s a lot of bang for your buck – particularly when you consider that this deal features the powerful yet efficient plug-in hybrid model, in generous Premium specification.
What you get with the NX is a premium SUV that is able to compete with the class best. Refined, comfortable and featuring an impressive onboard infotainment system, the NX is our current Best Large Plug-in Hybrid, with an ability to cover more than 40 miles on all-electric power from a single charge of its 18.1 kWh battery, while switching to petrol power still sees fuel economy of more than 40mpg.
As you’d expect from a Lexus, there’s a good level of standard equipment, including 18-inch alloy wheels, Bi-LED headlights, front and rear parking sensors with a reversing camera, a power tailgate, rear privacy glass, a heating function for the front seats and steering wheel, a wireless phone charger, a ten-speaker Pioneer audio system, and Lexus Link Connect multimedia system with a 9.8-inch touchscreen featuring cloud navigation and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.

As mentioned above, the beauty of this deal is that it’s for the NX PHEV model, which is able to cover more than 40 miles solely on all-electric power. If you have a home charger, then you’ll probably only need the odd fill up at a petrol station to cover longer journeys, which means you’ll be able to keep overall running costs down. The NX 2.5-litre plug-in hybrid packs a punch, too; with 302bhp, it manages 0-62mph in just 6.3 seconds, and includes reassuring all-wheel drive for extra grip on more challenging terrain.
The NX also delivers in terms of practicality, with a 521-litre boot and plenty of passenger space, while its braked towing capacity is a useful 1,500kg – enough for a trailer or a small caravan.
The NX 450h+ is a great package that ticks a lot of boxes, while this flexible personal leasing deal essentially bypasses its near £50k on the road price, and opens up Lexus ownership to even more customers – one to definitely consider.
