ALL-NEW ALL-ELECTRIC LEXUS RZ YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED Up to 251-271 miles*. However, this can vary depending on factors such as weather, wheel type and driving style. WHAT IS THE RANGE? Charge time is influenced by how and where you are charging your EV. We've found from an empty battery to full, a standard home/public charger (7kw) tends to take around 9 hours, whereas a 3-pin plug roughly 31 hours. The fastest chargers in the network are known as 'rapid chargers' and they have been proven to charge in 60 and 20 minutes (50kw/120kw). HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO CHARGE? We are committed to supporting you through the journey of moving towards an electric future and invite you to contact our teams with any questions you may have. In the meantime hopefully you will find some answers here from our EV Champions from Lexus Hedge End. *Indicative range only and subject to final test result.
FIND OUT MORE > The cost of charging your EV will vary between home, work and public charge points. Home (empty to full) is reported to cost on average £25, however we can't stress enough how this does vary depending on each individual provider and tariff. A tip from us would be to look for a tariff that has a lower rate during evenings, as this is when most drivers tend to charge their EV. HOW MUCH DOES A FULL CHARGE COST? WHERE CAN I FIND CHARGING STATIONS? You will have no doubt seen public chargers at service stations, supermarkets and car parks. The number of providers can be overwhelming, which is why Lexus introduced the Lexus Charging Network, giving you a simple way to charge at thousands of charge points across the UK without having to set up alternative payment methods, or download multiple apps. We've found this to be hugely advantageous and a benefit not all manufacturers are able to offer.
ALL-NEW LEXUS RZ LAUNCH Last quarter, we celebrated the arrival of the All-New Lexus RZ as we invited you to join us in embracing experience amazing. The ultimate driving experience was combined with the most picturesque locations, as customers were treated to sumptuous refreshments during their extended test-drives at The Mansion, Coldeast and Lympstone Manor.
See what automotive expert and presenter Sophie Fisher thought of the All-New Toyota bZ4X Earlier this month, Lexus Hedge End attended Southsea Food Festival where more than 50 stalls offered the finest food and drink produce from the local area. Our visitors, including Lord Mayor of Portsmouth, Tom Coles were given the opportunity to experience the culture of omotenashi outside of our dealership environment, as we were joined by guest artist, Eisai Shodo who ran Japanese Calligraphy Workshops. Our next outing will be later this summer with Lexus Exeter when we join families from Devon for animal adventures at The Wildwood Trust in Ottery Saint Mary. SOUTHSEA FOOD FESTIVAL

ROAD-TESTS THE LEXUS UX F SPORT With sporty looks, a pert bottom and cheekbones high enough to rival those of Angelina Jolie, the Lexus UX F Sport is a hottie. She’s a 2-litre automatic hybrid SUV, the best selling Lexus at Lexus Exeter, who are loaning me the car, and one to consider if you’re after a prestige eco badge but not sure about making the leap to pure electric due to range anxiety in the shires.
