Thinking of buying the 2016 Lexus NX?

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2016 Lexus NX for sale by us right now. Buying the 2016 Lexus NX is a big decision; here is the information we have.

Before you sign for the NX

NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA has 25 owner complaints on file, mostly about service brakes, engine and fuel/propulsion system.

Specs, explained

Under the hood: the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid and front-wheel drive. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 22 litres, from its 7.3 L/100 km rating. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $11.32. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles.

The NX in everyday use

Being a compact SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.

A good match for

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits stop-and-go driving and rideshare or delivery work.

Try before you buy

Rent the NX for a week and see how it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the NX answers more than any brochure.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Which one to look for

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

Questions first?

Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2016 Lexus NX from us first.
