Default 450h+ first impressions

We’ve had our 450h+ for about a month now. Here are my first impressions.
-peppy even in EV mode. We didn’t get to test drive one with a charged battery so a slight concern I had was what the power would be in EV mode. Pleasantly surprised by how fast it feels around town in EV.
-we get the advertised mpg in hv and the advertised range in ev.
-it’s taken a lot of adjusting of the drivers seat to find a comfortable setting for me. I think I have it now. I think this is due to the steering wheel not adjusting rearward as far as I’d like.
-ac is very effective
-cooled seats, not just vented
-quieter than I expected - run flats aren’t bothering me as much as I thought they would.
-overall a slick vehicle!


What’s better than 1 spindle? 2 spindles!

On the Seat Air Conditioning

Does the NX just have a duct below the seat? My old ISF had just the plastic duct. And I installed one of these

not sure how it works but it actually works. The ventilated seats on my 2014 IS are worthless.
