My dad just purchased a second Lexus 450h this time a 2011. It's a one owner traded in at Jim Pattison Lexus North Shore. 93kms, $21,000. My sister also has one. They like them and no issues so far.

I did hear from an RS member about a local owner who had their 450H break down at Mt Washington and had to be towed back to Victoria. Something major went wrong with the hybrid system and cost to repair was $14,000. They considered whether it was worth repairing or not.

My wife and I have considered a hybrid but we are holding out for better EV options. As tempting as hybrid is I want to cut out the majority of the maintenance costs. My wife often commutes 120km round trip so we need some decent range. For now our 13 CRV continues to run fine.
