Lexus has realigned the pricing for its electric vehicle (EV) line up, with cuts for the UX 300e and RZ 450e.

The NX and RX Plug-in hybrid models have also been reduced.

Following a recent update, which boosted range by 40%, the compact UX 300e is now available from £40,795 - a reduction of around £7,000.

The larger RZ 450e is now priced from £57,895, representing a price drop of £2,000.

Chris Hayes, director of Lexus in the UK, said: “At a time when people have become all too used to rising prices, we’re pleased to be reversing the trend and offering genuine reductions in the cost of ownership of our leading battery electric and plug-in hybrid models. The enhanced pricing comes with no compromise: customers can be assured of the same high levels of quality, reliability and customer service that have long distinguished our brand in the premium car market.”

Prices for the NX  450h+ now start at £49,995, while the flagship RX 450h+ costs from £63,995.
