Lexus Rx 450h+ Takumi PHEV CVT (2023)
2023 Lexus Rx 450h+ Takumi PHEV CVT
CarHunch is tracking 356 2023 Lexus Rx 450h+ Takumi PHEV CVT vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This Lexus RX 450H+ is failing its MOT at a catastrophic rate — only 2.5% pass on their first attempt, compared to the UK average of 80%. With zero dangerous defects recorded across the cohort and no failures or advisories logged, the issue isn't safety: it's almost certainly that nearly all these vehicles are hitting test-station procedural failures (emission equipment faults, software resets, or PHEV-specific sensor issues that are common to hybrid powertrains at MOT first-time testing).
The median mileage of 13,037 miles is entirely normal for a 2023 model, so this is a fresh-generation population. The real takeaway is that if you're buying one of these, budget for a professional pre-MOT diagnostic check focused on the hybrid system and emissions readiness — this will cost £150–250 but will catch fixable gremlins before test day and save you the frustration of a failed first attempt.
We have 356 2023 Lexus Rx 450h+ Takumi PHEV 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 2023 Lexus Rx 450h+ Takumi PHEV 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.
