2017 Lexus CT200h Review...Should You Buy a Used One?

2017 Lexus CT200h Review featuring a Certified Pre-Owned or CPO model. The Lexus CT200h is no longer being produced and the 2017 CT200h is the last model year of the Lexus CT200h. See my Lexus HS250h Review here: • 2010 Lexus HS 250h Rev...
The Lexus CT200h is the successor to the HS250h and the Lexus UX replaces the CT200h today. I appreciate the driver-focused feel the CT200h which is rare for a hybrid. The primary deficiency with the Lexus CT is the lack of space which will be elaborated in the full review.

@@LynxStarAuto Where I live there are a lot of crazy curvy roads and even if you drove a sportiest of sports cars you would rarely get up to 60. Think Monte Carlo if you watch WRC.

My wife has a used one. A 2012. We’ve had it for three years now. She bought it with 75,000 miles and it has 128,000 miles on it presently. We’ve had very good luck with it and the only thing that is left us stranded with it was when she accidentally ran it out of gas. She just made it through a blizzard with it. It’s been a great car for us. 10/10 definitely would recommend.

The front brakes lasted 50,000 miles and the rear brakes lasted 90,000. Only complaint… It has the acceleration of my old 1974 VW beetle. Sport mode helps a little bit.

The short answer is YES. These are among the best cars ever produced. It's a travesty that they didn't offer them with the Toyota Matrix engine and AWD drivetrain. They would have flown out the doors. The good part about Toyota's failure of marketing team is that they are fairly unknown and inexpensive to pick up. I bought one smashed in the front from auction with 6K miles on it back in 2016 for $11K, invested about $4000 to fix it and it now has about 80K miles on it and runs like a top. I'm seriously considering getting one with no motor and swapping a Prius Prime electric drivetrain in it. There was a company that had a method of hacking the Prius computer that allowed EV mode at all speeds and they were getting a tested average of around 100MPG with the hack in place. Sadly, the Internet has been stolen by big tech companies and the government and now it is pretty much dead. There isn't really anywhere to get uncensored knowledge anymore.

This is by far the most popular lexus selling in Europe and I was really curious about your thoughts on this car cuz all the other reviews over here say that this car is crap cuz of the cvt and the lack of sportiness which this doesn't try to have, this segment is still popular here and the rivals of this car are diesels that use more fuel, have less power and don't even remotely come close to this car interior yet they cost the same on the used market cuz nobody buys lexus over here. Was not disappointed with your review you actually make the effort to format yourself to the type of car your reviewing and focus on what their built for and not the numbers, keep the good work

Yes I can see it being popular in Europe well actually Europe doesn't even get a lot standard Gas only engines that are offered in the states. And good point you brought up, amongst 80-90 HP diesel compacts, this all of a sudden looks like a rocket in comparison lol

@@MeynMotorGroup I'm giving you an example, the a class hatchback base model has 90hp from a Renault 3 cyl diesel or some shit but they have a lot of trim levels and even in diesel you can get almost 200hp but the major difference is on the interior, germans cut out interior quality to keep prices competitive lexus simply puts the same old quality in it without cheapin out, you see a CT in 500 a classes here. Yes we don't get the v6s here, there's no way the average Joe can daily drive a 3.5litre engine with this gas prices the only cars running gas you can see here is those 1 liter 3 cyl and other smalls engines.

When you were flooring it did you have it in sport mode? Sport mode makes a HUGE difference in power. I keep mine in eco since I noticed I get almost 400 miles on 8 gallons when i keep it in eco but I'll put it in sport when I'm trying to overtake cars on the highway or accelerate on an empty highway and have no issue with power, feels super sporty in sport mode. Only thing i really hate about this car is the rear passenger room and the hideous stock stereo. I found a really good looking touch screen carplay stereo replacement that I love though.

My wife’s CT200h is a 2012 model year with less than 26,000 miles, YES 26,000 miles, It is in IMMACULATE condition looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor. She loves it and if she could get it through the front door I am sure she would take it to bed with her. The ONLY thing that has ever been done apart from regular maintenance was to replace the 12Volt battery. We have only had to replace one tire which was damaged by a broken kerb stone, the rest of the original tires are in very good condition. I have a few questions: Should we sell it, trade it or keep it. What is the life of the traction battery likely to be? We have had NO PROBLEMS and the traction battery seems to work perfectly. Oh yes it’s white without the Navigation option. Considering it is based on the Prius which is arguably one of the ugliest cars ever made, the CT is the CUTEST small car ever. One more thing, my wife’s car has the original small radiator grill not the HIDEOUS SHARKS MOUTH GRILL that all Lexus have now.

Just bought a nebula grey and parchment 2017 ct200h with 14000 miles in Denver CO, so far I love it, I've gotten fuel effiency up to 50 mpg and it really is a great car. Paid about 21000 for it because of the low mileage which I think is about fair. It's a neich market that's for sure. This is my first car though, at 16, and it's sporty looking without being fast so my parents weren't afraid I would rack up tickets and with sport mode it just handles so well and is just fun to drive. I highly recommend!

This car is hella fun and with the right tires and in turbo is a blast. Handling is excellent. Self maintenance is amazingly easy. Hybrid batteries are not too pricey and you can find lifetime warranty options. One of the best cars I’ve ever had. The storage space moved my apartment all but couches. No regrets getting my 2015.

You used to catch these 3 y/o CT’s CPO with 30k for $19k After my dads civic lease he had his heart set on one of these, till he drove one, he did like how it drove, he liked driving the civic better. He ended up spending a little more and getting an ES350 and then he was impressed. CT still a good car, good economy, great quality and features, but it’s small and the drive could be better.

Super review again of this economical prestige hatchback. Not the most exciting drive but cheap to run and still has the usual Lexus refinements. This is the sort of car FBI informant Raymond Curto (RIP) would order for his wife after blaming his pitiful kickup to Tony on a struggling economy. Classy but not too harsh on the purse strings.

With the new IS500 coming, a CT500 would have been awesome. I think the ct is styled great but the lack of engine options hurt its popularity/sales. I had this and a prius c at the same time (the ct is now with my sis) and this is way better of a commuting car. Of course the interior isnt even comparable.
