Lexus NX 450h+
Charging cable
Full AC charging speed for your car.
Why this fits your NX 450h++−
The Lexus NX 450h+ has a Type 2 inlet and a single-phase 6.6kW onboard charger. A 7.4kW cable already delivers its full AC speed. The 22kW option only helps if your next car charges faster.
Which Lexus NX 450h+ versions does it fit?+
This cable fits every Lexus NX 450h+, because they all share the same Type 2 charging inlet. That includes:
- Lexus NX 450h+ Plus
- Lexus NX 450h+ F Sport
- Lexus NX 450h+ Premium
- Lexus NX 450h+ Plus Takumi
- Lexus NX 450h+ Plus F Sport
- Lexus NX 450h+ Plus Premium
Whichever NX 450h+ trim you drive, it is the same cable, so you can order with confidence.

Charging
the Lexus NX 450h+.
The Lexus NX 450h+ is Lexus's plug-in hybrid SUV, on sale in the UK since 2021 across trim levels including Plus, Premium, F Sport, and Takumi variants. It pairs a 2.5-litre petrol engine with an 18.1kWh battery pack and electric motors for both axles, giving it a meaningful electric-only range for urban and commuter driving. The plug-in system charges through a Type 2 inlet, the same connector used by most UK wallboxes and public AC charge points.
When you plug in at home or at a public AC station, the cable to use is a Type 2 to Type 2 lead. The NX 450h+'s onboard charger is rated at 6.6kW on a single phase, and there is no DC rapid charging facility on this model. The PHEV battery is relatively compact, so top-up charges are quick rather than requiring an overnight session.
Estimates based on battery size and charge power. Rapid (DC) times are for a 10 to 80% charge, the way manufacturers quote them. Real-world charging varies with temperature, battery state and the charger itself.
7.4 kW or 22 kW?
Which cable does
the NX 450h+ need?
The NX 450h+'s onboard charger peaks at 6.6kW single-phase. Because that sits below the 7.4kW ceiling of a typical UK home wallbox, the car is already extracting close to its maximum AC rate on a standard home setup. A 7.4kW Type 2 cable is the sensible choice, and there is no benefit to a heavier-rated cable on this car.
There is no DC rapid charging port on the NX 450h+, so the Type 2 lead is your only charging cable. A 5m cable handles most home and public AC charge point scenarios comfortably. If your wallbox is positioned well away from where the car sits, or the socket ends up a long reach from the inlet, consider a 7m lead for a bit of extra flexibility.
What does it cost to charge?
The 18.1kWh battery costs roughly £1.35 to fill from empty at an off-peak rate of around 7.5p per kWh, or around £5 at a standard rate of around 27p per kWh. Keeping the battery topped up with short, frequent charges is the most cost-effective approach for a PHEV like the NX 450h+, making the most of the electric-only range before the petrol engine takes over. Check current energy tariffs, as rates vary.

Lexus NX 450h+ FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usCan the Lexus NX 450h+ charge at 22kW?+−
No, the Lexus NX 450h+ has a single-phase onboard charger limited to 6.6kW, so a 7.4kW cable already delivers its full AC speed. A 22kW cable would only benefit a future car.
What length charging cable should I get?+−
5m suits most home and public charge points. Choose 7.5m or 10m if the charge point is far from your car's charging port or you park on the far side of a bay.
What charging cable does the Lexus NX 450h+ need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable. The NX 450h+ has a single Type 2 AC inlet and no DC rapid charging capability. The car's onboard charger is rated at 6.6kW, so a standard 7.4kW Type 2 lead is the appropriate choice for home wallboxes and public AC points.
Can the Lexus NX 450h+ rapid charge?+−
No. The NX 450h+ has no DC rapid charging port. Charging is AC only, via the Type 2 inlet, at up to 6.6kW. At that rate the 18.1kWh battery takes around 2.5 to 3 hours from empty to full on a 7.4kW wallbox, which is practical for both home and workplace top-ups.
How long does the Lexus NX 450h+ take to charge at home?+−
On a 7.4kW home wallbox the 18.1kWh battery takes around 2.5 to 3 hours from empty to full, limited by the car's 6.6kW onboard charger. On a standard 3-pin granny cable at around 2.3kW the same charge would take around 8 hours. Regular top-up charges, rather than running the battery flat, keep charge times shorter.
What length cable do I need for the Lexus NX 450h+?+−
A 5m cable is adequate for most driveways where the wallbox is close to where you park. If there is more distance between the socket and the car, or if the charging port ends up on the far side from your wallbox, a 7m cable gives a useful margin. Avoid stretching a cable tight, as repeated tension wears the connector over time.
