In recent years, there's been a big push for drivers to make the switch to electric vehicles (EVs). This can be a great move for those with short commutes or who don't need to drive long distances. If you're considering making your next vehicle an electric model, it's important to understand the drawbacks and how to overcome them so you know what you're getting into. In this guide, you'll learn about potential issues that come with driving an EV and what you can do to make EV ownership the best possible experience. more Driving Range Driving range is one of the biggest concerns people have about EV ownership and for good reason. On average, today's EVs can go about 234 miles before they need to recharge compared to around 400 miles for a gasoline vehicle. Although this may seem like a wide gap, most people only drive about 37 miles per day on average. This means that an EV for the average driver will provide plenty of drive time between charges. Charging Locations The EV charging network is not as extensive as the infrastructure for gas vehicles. So, it can require more planning on your part if you want to charge your vehicle while you're traveling. Larger cities like San Jose, California, have more charging locations than you'll find in less densely populated areas. You can always charge your EV at home by plugging into a standard 120-volt outlet, but for fast charging, you'll want to find a public charger that offers this option. Using an app can help you find local chargers that will work for your EV. Charging Times An electric vehicle takes longer to charge than a gas-powered vehicle takes to refuel. So, it's important to keep track of where your battery power is and not let it get too low. While you can replenish some battery power in as little as 30 to 45 minutes, getting a full charge typically takes six to 12 hours depending on the EV and type of charger you use. Charging your vehicle overnight is often the best way to ensure it's full and ready to go when you need it. Initial Cost As you shop for an EV, you'll discover they have a higher initial cost to buy when compared to similar nonelectric vehicles. This is because of the high cost of producing the batteries that power these cars. The higher price tag can deter some buyers, but if you're interested in owning an EV, consider the other benefits that you'll enjoy before you make your final decision. Battery Cost As we mentioned, the batteries for EVs are expensive. If you have to replace the battery in your EV, it won't be cheap. Fortunately, most EVs offer extensive warranties that cover batteries for up to 10 years. Additionally, many manufacturers create EV batteries to last at least 10 years, if not more. Temperature Effects If you live in a climate where the temperature stays above 50 degrees, then an EV could be the ideal vehicle. However, lower temperatures will affect battery performance. When the temperature outside falls below 50 degrees, your battery will lose its charge faster, and temperatures in the freezing range could affect your battery even more. This means you'll need to charge the battery more often, plus you may not maintain the same driving range you're used to during colder times of the year. Repairs and Maintenance Although the number of EVs on the market is increasing, these vehicles are still fairly new. This means that finding someone who can carry out repairs and maintenance on your EV might be a challenge. These vehicles don't have the same parts or mechanics as a car with an internal combustion engine, so not everyone understands how to care for them properly. Some mechanics won't even work on an EV, so make sure you find someone who can help maintain your EV so it continues to run as it should. Power Outages You need power to charge your EV, but what happens if the power goes out? A power outage can make charging your battery impossible, and rolling blackouts and normally scheduled power shutoffs are quite common in some places, including California. Regularly charging your EV is one way to help prevent issues when the power goes out. You may also want to have a generator or backup ride just in case your power is out for more than a day. Vehicle Selection Automakers are working to increase the types of EVs available to consumers, but the selection is still limited. So, you won't have as many options when shopping for an EV as you do when buying a gas vehicle. By shopping around and researching what's out there, you can find an EV that works for you. More companies are bringing SUVs to the playing field, and there are even some trucks entering the EV market. Towing Ability Some EVs don't offer much in the way of towing capacity, so if you need a vehicle that can tow a load, you may have trouble finding something in the EV class. Although there are models available that have some towing capacity, the driving range is likely to be greatly affected when you have a load to pull. If you decide you want to tow with your EV, make sure you understand how it will affect your driving range. Learn More About EV Ownership at Lexus of Stevens Creek Driving an EV has many benefits, but it can be a big difference from driving a gas-powered model.

With so many SUVs on the market, it can be a challenge to find one that meets your unique needs. Among the myriad of options, you may have come across the 2024 Lexus RX and the 2024 Acura MDX. While these two SUVs share some similarities, they also have differences that will likely make one a better choice for you and your lifestyle. Use this comparison guide to help you understand how these SUVs measure up so you can make an informed decision before you buy. more Exterior For the latest Lexus RX, there are several trims available to ensure you get exactly the features and capabilities you want in a luxury SUV. Your options include gas-powered, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and F Sport Performance models. Depending on the trim you want, you can further customize the look of your RX with one of eight vibrant paint colors. Some of the more popular colors include Matador Red Mica, Nori Green Pearl, and Copper Crest. Rain-sensing windshield wipers, LED fog lights, and heated outside mirrors with a tilt-down feature are standard across the lineup. You can get the MDX in one of three trims: the base MDX, Type S, and Type S Advance. Available packages let you add even more features to the SUV, and you can choose from six color palettes to personalize the SUV's look. Keep in mind that not all colors are available in all areas. Although rain-sensing windshield wipers and LED fog lights aren't standard features for the MDX, you can enjoy LED headlights and daytime running lights no matter which version you select. Interior Lexus knows luxury, and starting the moment you get behind the wheel of the 2024 RX, comfort and style take over. NuLuxe interior trim gives the SUV's cabin a refined look, but upgrading to a higher trim level will get you perforated leather trim or perforated semi-aniline leather trim that makes the RX's interior feel even more sophisticated. Standard reclining rear seats ensure your passengers enjoy the ride, and at higher trim levels, rear seats are also heated and ventilated for maximum comfort. F Sport models feature F Sport front seats with enhanced bolsters and aluminum pedals and scuff plates. Inside the Acura MDX, you'll find a few features in common with the RX, such as heated front seats, push-button start, and a power tilt-and-telescoping steering column, but it has a few features of its own that may appeal to you. For example, 12-way power seats with lumbar support make it easy to find just the right position, while a third row of seating means you can bring more passengers along. Powertrain You'll have a couple of options when it comes to power for your 2024 Lexus RX. The base engine is a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder setup that brings you 275 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. You can also get a hybrid version that features a 2.5-liter in-line four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor for ultimate efficiency. This combination delivers 246 horsepower and 233 lb-ft of torque. The plug-in hybrid models also have the 2.5-liter in-line four-cylinder engine, but the block makes 304 horsepower and gets an estimated 83 MPGe. F Sport models use the 2.4-liter engine, but you'll enjoy a significant boost to 366 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. Fuel efficiency for the base trim of the RX is an estimated 22 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. Hybrid models get an estimated 37 mpg in the city and 34 mpg on the highway. Two different engines can provide power for the Acura MDX. The first option is a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that delivers 290 horsepower and 267 lb-ft of torque. If you want a little more power, opt for the 3.0-liter twin-scroll turbo six-cylinder engine that pumps out 355 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. Gas mileage for the 3.5-liter setup is a little better at 19 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway, while the 3.0-liter engine only gets 17 mpg for city driving and just 21 mpg when you get out on the highway. Technology Today's drivers need to stay connected wherever they go, which is why the Lexus RX offers an available 14-inch touch-screen display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. A Wi-Fi hotspot is standard to ensure you can get online no matter where the road takes you. The Lexus premium sound system with 12 speakers makes your favorite songs sound incredible, but for a concert-like listening experience, upgrade to the 21-speaker Mark Levinson sound system. The 2024 Acura MDX comes with a 12.3-inch dual-content center display that's also compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for your connectivity needs. You can enjoy all your favorite songs on the standard nine-speaker sound system, or upgrade to get the ELS premium sound system with more speakers. Bluetooth streaming audio makes it easy to play whatever you're in the mood for when you hit the road. Safety Sharing many of the same safety technologies, you can feel safe and secure regardless of whether you drive the Lexus RX or the Acura MDX. Both models feature a forward collision warning system, lane departure alert, and road sign recognition as part of their suite of standard safety features. With the Lexus RX, you'll also get 10 airbags and intuitive parking assist with auto braking for added peace of mind. Price Pricing for the Lexus RX starts at an MSRP of $49,950, whereas the MDX has a slightly lower MSRP of $49,850. As you move up the line, you'll find the price for the MDX jumps significantly, with the highest model coming with an MSRP of $73,500.

Nori Green Pearl. Nightfall Mica. 2024 Lexus RX 450H+ Performance Under the hood of the 2024 Lexus RX 450H+, you'll find its hybrid powertrain. This powertrain uses a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine along with three electric motors. These four units combine to deliver 304 horsepower and can accelerate the 450H+ from zero to 60 mph in about 6.2 seconds. While many people believe that opting for a hybrid vehicle means sacrificing power and acceleration, the 450H+ is proof that this isn't the case.

The electronically controlled, full-time all-wheel-drive system delivers a sport-like driving experience and gives the vehicle more stability on tougher road surfaces.

You'll also get a Level 1 charging cable that you can use with standard 120-volt outlets. This means you won't need any additional hardware to charge your 450H+ at home or through public charging stations. However, if you install a Level 2 charging port at home or find one on the road, you'll be able to charge your vehicle faster. With a Level 2 charging station, you can fully recharge the battery in about two and a half hours. 2024 Lexus RX 450H+ Interior Space Inside, you'll quickly notice the streamlined and modern design of the cabin.

There are three options available, with each delivering a high-quality driving experience. The base model comes with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 203 horsepower and comes standard with all-wheel drive. Moving up to the ES 350 trim gives you a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that produces 302 horsepower. Then there's the ES 300h, which is a hybrid powertrain. This model produces 215 horsepower, thanks to its combination of gas engine and electric motor. Since there are three different powertrains, that means your fuel efficiency will vary depending on what you select. With the base model, expect to get around 25 mpg in the city and 34 mpg on the highway. Opting instead for the ES 350 changes these estimates to 22 mpg and 32 mpg, respectively. And, as you'd expect, the hybrid performs the best in terms of fuel efficiency, coming in with estimates of 43 mpg in the city and 44 mpg on the highway. With these three primary options available, you can choose a setup based on your personal preferences when it comes to power, fuel efficiency, and cost. 2024 Lexus ES Technology With the latest Lexus ES model, you'll also get the latest technology.

Through this touch screen, you can easily play your favorite music, audio books, or podcasts, thanks to Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integrations. You can also load your preferred navigation app to help you get around. All of your audio plays through a 10-speaker audio system, which delivers a high-quality sound experience in the entire cabin.

The 2023 Lexus ES earned the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick award, meaning it was one of the safest vehicles on the road. With the 2024 Lexus ES making improvements to the 2023 model, we expect it to perform just as well as the previous version. 2024 Lexus ES Trim Levels With the 2024 Lexus ES, there are several configurations available. For starters, there's the Lexus ES 250, the Lexus ES 350, and the Lexus ES 300h. Which one you select will determine the powertrain that comes with your vehicle. Then, within each of these options, there are several trims you can select. These are the F SPORT Design, the Luxury, the F SPORT Handling, and the Ultra Luxury. Which trim level you select will determine the types of amenities and features that come with your Lexus. All told, there are 14 configurations available, giving you more flexibility to decide how much you want to spend and the setup that you get.
