I am amazed at what I see on a daily basis in the car business. One of the things that impresses me the most is when someone invests the time to properly care for their car. In this video I'll show you what has to be in the top 5 of best cared for vehicles that I've ever seen. I will also answer the question that I always get asked concerning a hybrid vehicle. "Will a hybrid last as long as a non-hybrid vehicle?" Spoiler alert!!! The answer is, YES!!!

Our 2006 RX 400 H has over 307,000 miles on it and it still doing great! It’s on the original battery and the battery is still working perfectly. The trick for long life is buying a quality vehicle and then maintaining it properly. As for the battery be sure you vacuum out and keep the rear vents clean and the battery will last a long time!

The hybrid battery on my 2007 RX400h was replaced by the dealer four years ago at 268,000 miles. We're now at 308,000 miles and still going strong. Still drives smooth, everything still works, interior's still nice, transmission's still perfect and engine still uses no oil. Half of me wants to upgrade to a newer one but the other half asks, why?

I have a Lexus 400h with a wood steering wheel and wood shifter, it's an option. I have 147k miles on it still runs like new--smooth and quiet with enough pep to beat just about anybody off the line, except Tesla's. :) My dad put: 450k miles on his Chevy truck and it wasn't near the quality of a Lexus. Cars will usually keep going, for almost-ever, if you service them right and drive gently.

Hybrid battery failures do happen at lower mileages, but it's just as rare as an engine failing at lower mileages, and typically only a single battery cell goes bad and not the entire pack. Toyota/Lexus batteries have an excellent lifespan because of how well controlled the charge & discharge cycles are. Some older Honda hybrids have been the exception to this as their design brought the battery to maximum and minimum charge levels too frequently and longevity suffered. Most manufacturers follow (or even license) Toyota's hybrid designs.

Great video, and great used RX. I agree that proper maintenance is the key, but sadly too many service centers and repair shops make it a goal to rip people off. The fear of getting taken advantage of scares people who can’t afford to be ripped off. I’ve worked around the car business and talked to many people who fear dealerships and service centers more than dentists or the boogeyman! Sad that businesses do that so there aren’t more cars like this RX on the road today.

My brother in Laws car Honda Accord 1995 had 500,000 Kilometres on the clock when he traded it. He kept it serviced with what the factory manual said at the right time. Key to maintenance free driving is servicing according to manufacturers specifications. Problem is many people don't because they can't be bothered, are ill informed or the servicing is too expensive.

Secret to a clean car-no food including soda in the car and seat covers for the first 10 years. We only allow on road trips water, raw vegetables and crackers that are not greasy in our cars and a lot of wet wipes for little and big fingers, wax the outside annually and wash weekly the outside with water only and wipe down everything inside with the damp towel that you dried the car and change the oil when the maintenance light comes on. Our cars never rust and we have a a 19 year old Chev Silverado (original owner) that looks like it is 2 years old. Sugar and other sticky foods attracts dirt and before you know it you are driving in a trashed car.

Hybrid batteries last by years, not by miles. High mileage vehicles usually have freeway miles and the battery is only moderately used when slowing down and speeding up. Low mileage vehicles usually have local miles and the batteries are used extensively in stop-and-go traffic. The batteries in all 12 year old hybrids are similar, regardless of the mileage.

I have a 2013 450h with 39,000 miles. Original msrp $57.5k. I bought it in 2015 with 18k miles on it. The original owner ordered it and it must have been the last 13 made because the plate says 7/13/13 for manufacture date. Didn't make it to the USA until September and wasn't titled until December of 13. I am thinking of trading it for a pick up truck (which I drove for 40 years) but I know it's going to last forever. I do synthetic oil change and all of the filters myself, the white parchment leather is as new. It's been (by me) clay barred, polished (Meguiar's Ultimate Polish) and Quick and Slick to finish and maintain mirror shine. The claret mica metallic is beautiful in sunlight. I got stopped in the neighborhood at a speed trap and as the cop was writing out the ticket he wanted me to verify it was a 2013 lol. The only option I I wanted but did not get is the Levinson sound system.

I own 2 of them a 2006 400H and a 2007 400H and never had an issue other than the vacuum canister on the 06 for the fuel supply went out and on occasion the check hybrid light putting it into limp mode but I pull the battery cable and it clears the issue. I am almost ready to buy a newer one

Ours has the Navigation Package on it and it does have heated seats, so it's a good question why this one doesn't.

i have a CT200h. my question is if i maintain my car every 5k miles recommended at the dealer, will it last that long? I know it’s different from the rx400 but i wonder if it’s possible.

The Lexus RX350, Toyota highlander are based on the Toyota Kruger, which sold on other worldly markets. The Toyota Kruger is built for Australia's harsh desert environment. So that's this Lexus RX lasted for so long

Milage has nothing to do with the life span of the Hybrid battery. It's the age. You can drive indefinite miles. The average life span is about 10-11 years. The middle cell modules degrade faster than the outer surrounded ones due to heat. It's usually a couple modules that will get so low that it throws the entire pack out balance causing it to fail.

I have a 2006 rx400h with 250k miles. And it has wood trim shifter and steering wheel. Just bought a rx350 f sport. Lexus and toyota are way ahead of their time on technology and over engineering their hybrid systems. Wish they would come out with an electric or plug in one. My next car will be a rx450h f sport

My dad bought my mom a 25,000 mile RX400h in 2009 which was passed on to my older sister in 2014. Traded it for a GLK at 164,000 miles because it was time for an upgrade. Kids destroyed that car and so did the automatic car washes, but that car didn’t have any trips to the shop other than maintenance!

Brock if you think this mileage is surprising, how about a 1999 Lexus LS 400 with 500,000 miles? Surprising, huh? Well that's just what Johnson Lexus of Raleigh posted on their Facebook page yesterday, "a 1999 LS 400 in for its 500,000 mile service!" Words cannot explain how good that car looks for it's age and mileage. Johnson Lexus of Raleigh: facebook.com/JohnsonLexus/

Not unheard of for Towncars and CrownVics to hit that mileage. In the 2000s Lexus and Lincoln were tied for reliability. The Ford 4.6L V8 had no VVTs and could run forever.
