The 2016 Lexus CT for buyers

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2016 Lexus CT for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Here is what to know about the 2016 Lexus CT before buying one.

Recalls and complaints

Owners filed 3 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, service brakes and vehicle speed control; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

Reading the spec sheet

Power: the 1.8L 4-cylinder hybrid; drive: 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.

The EPA rates it at 5.7 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 17 litres. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $8.84. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$1,600 a year for 15,000 miles.

When the CT makes sense

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Practical details

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Luggage space is rated at 396 litres: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Try before you buy

Rent the CT first, and buy only if it fits your life. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

Picking a year and a trim

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

The cost of driving it

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $88.40 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Ask us

Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.

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 CT from us first.
