Thinking about leasing your next car and wondering if a Lexus is the right choice? Don't worry; you're in the right place.
Japanese manufacturer Lexus has been around since 1989 and has become renowned for their luxury and cutting-edge technology.
In this blog, leasing experts Nationwide Vehicle Contracts explain why a Lexus might be the perfect fit for you.
We discuss:
Lexus is a Japanese luxury car manufacturer that's built a reputation for delivering exceptional quality, performance, and reliability since 1989. The luxury division of Toyota, Lexus has become a worldwide brand with success across Asia, North America, and Europe.
If you're after a luxury car that's a bit different from the usual German suspects (think BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz), I'd seriously consider a Lexus. Known for their craftsmanship and attention to detail, Lexus offers a brilliant blend of luxury and advanced technology.
As soon as you open the door to a Lexus vehicle, you're greeted by luxury. High-quality materials are commonplace in the cabin, making for a relaxing and serene driving experience. All features are also built to last and will serve you well for the duration of your lease contract.
Lexus has also been associated with reliability pretty much since its inception. Consistently ranked high in reliability surveys, Lexus cars are excellently built and relatively affordable to repair in the event that something goes wrong.
So don't worry, if you've been wondering, "Is Lexus a good car?" you can rest assured that it is.
Lexus offers a diverse lineup of cars, from sporty saloons to versatile SUVs. We've picked out our top three Lexus cars that you should consider for your next lease:
- Lexus ES Saloon - The ES Saloon is a stylish hybrid saloon car perfect for a weekday commute. With a comfortable ride and loads of technology, it ensures you arrive in style. Under the bonnet, there's a 2.5-litre hybrid petrol engine that's spritely and economical, while inside, there are gadgets aplenty, such as a 12.3-inch infotainment system.
- Lexus RX - If you're after a premium SUV with a lovely interior and a smooth drive, the Lexus RX is the lease car for you. With a sleek exterior design and a luxurious interior, the RX will be sure to keep your family happy. It's also available as a self-charging hybrid or a plug-in hybrid, the latter of which returns up to 67 miles of range.
- Lexus RZ - The RZ is a premium electric SUV and Lexus's first bespoke EV. Offering up to 272 miles of range on a single charge, it is perfect for families looking for luxury and sustainability. You certainly do get luxury; the RZ's interior is a masterclass with intuitive technology and high-quality materials dotted about.
When it comes to the question, "Are Lexus cars reliable?" the answer is a resounding yes. Thanks to Toyota's engineering and quality control, Lexus cars are known for their exceptional reliability track record.
Lexus cars consistently rank among the best in reliability surveys and customer satisfaction ratings.
From durable and economical engines to the materials used inside the cabin, Lexus cars are built to last.
Plus, with regular maintenance, a Lexus car can run smoothly for the duration of your lease contract. Combine this with the advanced technology, and Lexus's reliability is rock-solid.
As a division of Toyota, it comes as no surprise that Lexus cars come with loads of innovative technology. When you lease a Lexus, here are some of the features you get access to:
- Lexus Link+ App - Lexus's app ensures you're always in control no matter where the drive takes you. It features remote climate control, personalised and contextualised coaching to help you optimise your driving, find my car, and notify you of your car status.
- Lexus Link Connect & Pro - Lexus's multimedia system offers easy access to information, entertainment, and connectivity. It includes smartphone integration, live traffic updates, voice assistant, and a touchscreen display screen.
- Lexus with nanoeX - NanoeX is an air purification technology that ensures a cleaner and healthier in-car environment. It represses potentially harmful particles, releases nano-sized water molecules to deodorise bad odours, and prevents moisture evaporation.
As with all car manufacturers, Lexus prioritises safety. Their vehicles are equipped with the Lexus Safety System+, which addresses three key areas of accident prevention: frontal collisions, unintended lane departures, and night-time accidents.
It also includes systems to enhance driver situational awareness to help reduce the risk of accidents.
It also includes:
- Pre-collision system with pedestrian detection (PCS)
- Dynamic radar cruise control (DRCC)
- Lane departure alert (LDA) with lane trace assist
- Road sign assist
Another system available (exclusively on the Lexus LS) is Lexus Safety System +A. Building on the Lexus Safety System+, it features world-class technology to enhance your driving experience. Incorporating a pre-collision system, it adds pedestrian alert, active steering assist, and a front lateral side re-crash system.
