The 2016 Lexus NX for buyers

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2016 Lexus NX; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is what to know about the 2016 Lexus NX before buying one.

Recalls and complaints

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

What the specs mean

The 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid is what moves it, with front-wheel drive. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

By the EPA's combined rating of 7.3 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 22 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $11.32 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Size and space

It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.

Good uses for the NX

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.

A longer test drive

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent the NX first, and buy only if it fits your life.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.32 in fuel.

Choosing the right one

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. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
