Lexus Nx 300h CVT (2021)
2021 Lexus Nx 300h CVT
CarHunch is tracking 171 2021 Lexus Nx 300h CVT vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
The 2021 Lexus NX 300h is failing its MOT at an alarming rate: just 38% pass first time compared to the UK average of 80%, and no dangerous defects have been recorded, which suggests the issues are non-safety items rather than hazardous mechanical problems. This dramatic underperformance is puzzling given these hybrids are averaging only 38,450 miles and should be well within their reliable window.
The zero failures and advisories recorded per vehicle is genuinely odd and likely indicates a data collection issue—these cars are clearly failing tests, but the specific failure types aren't being logged in this dataset. Before committing to purchase, obtain the full MOT history for any specific vehicle you're considering, as the pattern here suggests either a systematic problem affecting this cohort or incomplete records that mask what's actually going wrong.
We have 171 2021 Lexus Nx 300h CVT vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data to show reliable statistics for this cohort.
What to check before buying a 2021 Lexus Nx 300h CVT
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
