Electric vehicle charging If you are making the step into EV driving, you may be wondering what are the charging options for your electric or hybrid Lexus vehicle. From charging types, charging times to locations, we are here to provide the essential information, so you feel more confident about how to charge your electric or hybrid Lexus.

Why Choose Lexus Electric or Hybrid Vehicles?

Lexus has a wide range of electric and hybrid vehicles, perfect for any kind of driver. Whether you are looking for a compact hybrid SUV like the LBX or UX or a saloon like the ES, the choice is endless with Lexus.

Different charging solutions Immediately below, you’ll find various charging-time examples (based on a typical crossover vehicle). It’s worth noting, however, that charging times vary depending on the make and model of a car, and its battery size. Therefore, the following is for guidance purposes only.

Three-Pin Wall Socket

Typically, slow charging occurs at home or at work using a three-pin (3 kW AC) power source and the car’s own adaptor. As the name suggests, it’s the slowest option. That said, it’s also very convenient because charging can take place overnight.

However, it’s not recommended that owners leave their cars in a three-pin charging state for an extended period of time because this will lead to accelerated battery deterioration. Please check with the relevant car manufacturer for further details.

Slightly quicker home-charging options are available in the form of a dedicated charging unit with, for instance, a 3.6kW wallbox.

Home Wall Box

Introducing the Lexus HomeCharge, the clever and fast home charger, providing cost-effective and convenient solutions.

Charging at home gives you control of when you charge your Lexus and for how long. Typically installed on your driveway, the Lexus HomeCharge allows you to take advantage of off-peak energy tariffs, so your vehicle is ready when you need it.

The Lexus HomeCharge is a 7.4 kW, using a type 2 socket and can be connected through the Lexus Link+ App, so you can stay connected on the go.

Lexus Link+ App

The Lexus Link+ app is designed to enhance every journey by seamlessly connecting you to your Lexus, putting comfort, control and convenience at your fingertips. Created to complement Lexus' Omotenashi service philosophy, the app transforms your vehicle into a connected car, allowing you to plan journeys, manage servicing and gain valuable insights into how you drive through one intuitive platform.

With Lexus Link+, you can enjoy a wide range of connected features, including Remote Climate Control to pre-heat or cool your cabin before you set off, Find My Car to locate your car in unfamiliar areas and Spot My Car, which activates the hazard lights to locate it in busy car parks. The app also provides car status notification, alerting you if you have left your car unlocked, giving added peace of mind wherever you are.

Lexus Link+ also supports remote charging features, allowing you to check charge levels, monitor remaining range and schedule charging to complete in line with your planned departure time when charging at home.

Public Charging

Public charging stations are useful when you are on the go, or you can’t install a home wall box in your home. With thousands of charging stations across the UK, longer journeys or daily commuting in an electric or hybrid Lexus has never felt easier.

The Lexus Public Charging Network is a subscription-based model which provides you access to over 500,000 public charging points across Europe. This network works with the Lexus Link+, holding all the information regarding your Lexus together, allowing you to manage your time in advance.
