How economical is the Lexus CT 200h in practice?

The CT 200h is by far the best-selling Lexus in the Netherlands. This is due to the low addition, with which the model scored points with leasing Netherlands in its early years. Is the CT 200h also an economical car in practice? We determine this based on 44 drivers who keep track of their consumption in the AutoWeek Consumption Monitor.

The Lexus CT 200h shares its powertrain with the Toyota Prius, but has a slightly more conventional design. That seems to have paid off, because after the addition madness has subsided, Lexus sold more CT 200hs in the Netherlands every year than Toyota Priussen managed to put away. Please note: after 2015, this is no longer about thousands of copies, but about modest hundreds. In 2019, the CT 200h found its successor in the Lexus UX 250h. A, how could it be otherwise, more SUV-like model.

The most economical CT 200h

Although every CT 200h had the same powertrain, the F-Sport Line version was slightly sportier. Although you would expect this package to be chosen by drivers with a heavier right foot, this is not the case here. Over a distance of 16,320 km, this economy champion with his F-Sport Line records a consumption of 1 to 25.3, in official figures that is 3.95 l/100 km. That is 3.7 percent more economical than the manufacturer’s specification of 1 to 24.4!

Lexus CT 200h: average consumption

If you want, the Lexus CT can also be considerably less economical, which this sporty driver proves. Over a distance of almost 7,500 winter kilometers, he records 1 in 14.4. This puts it the lowest score on the consumption ladder, 69.3 percent higher than the gas consumption stated by the factory.

On average, the 44 drivers of a CT 200h do a lot better. Together they record 5.3 liters per 100 kilometers, 1 in 18.9. Slightly less economical than the newer, but also larger Kia Niro Hybrid and slightly more economical than the more compact Volkswagen Polo.
