How many miles can a Lexus go on a full tank?

A typical Lexus can travel roughly 350 to 550 miles on a full tank of gasoline, with hybrid variants often pushing toward 600–700 miles under favorable conditions. Exact range depends on the model, engine choice, and how you drive.


What determines a vehicle’s range on a full tank


Range is calculated from two key numbers: the fuel-tank capacity (how much fuel the tank can hold) and the vehicle’s fuel economy (how many miles it can go per gallon). Real-world results vary with terrain, weather, payload, tire setup, and driving style. Publicized estimates from the EPA store are the best starting point for planning trips.


Gasoline-only Lexus models: rough estimates


Before listing representative gasoline models, it's important to note that the exact range depends on the engine, drivetrain, and year. The figures below are approximate ranges to help with planning.



  • Lexus UX (gasoline variants): roughly 360–420 miles per full tank.

  • Lexus IS (gasoline variants): roughly 380–450 miles.

  • Lexus ES (gasoline variants): roughly 420–500 miles.

  • Lexus NX (gasoline variants): roughly 420–520 miles.

  • Lexus RX (gasoline variants): roughly 450–560 miles.

  • Lexus LS (gasoline variants): roughly 500–650 miles.


These ranges reflect typical configurations and mean conditions; exact figures for your car may differ. Always check the EPA window sticker or the owner's manual for precise numbers.


Hybrid and electrified Lexus models: rough estimates


Hybrid variants combine higher fuel economy with moderate tank sizes, often yielding longer real-world ranges than their gasoline-only siblings in normal driving. The estimates below assume typical hybrids without extended-range electric capability.



  • Lexus ES Hybrid: roughly 520–620 miles per full tank.

  • Lexus NX Hybrid: roughly 520–600 miles.

  • Lexus RX Hybrid: roughly 540–700 miles.

  • Lexus LS Hybrid: roughly 550–650 miles.


Hybrid formulas vary by trim and battery state; plug-in hybrids offer some electric driving range before the gasoline engine takes over, which can alter overall miles per tank. Check the vehicle’s spec sheet for exact numbers.


Bottom line


In practice, planning your trip around a full-tank range requires checking your specific model-year configuration. The EPA estimates on the window sticker provide the most reliable baseline for how far you can expect to go on a single tank.


Summary


Across Lexus’s lineup, full-tank range typically spans the mid-300s to mid-600s miles for gasoline-powered models, while hybrids commonly push toward the 600–700 mile mark under normal driving. For precise numbers, consult the exact model-year’s EPA ratings and tank capacity in the owner’s manual or official Lexus spec sheets.

How many miles does a Lexus get on a full tank?


The 2022 Lexus IS has more than 430 miles of maximum range on a single full tank of fuel. The 2022 Lexus IS has the option to use 1 of 4 available engines with their own unique fuel efficiency.



How many miles can a Lexus ES 350 last on a full tank?


Max range for an ES 350 is probably around 375-400 miles. But with your driving habits if that's all you're actually driving you definitely should be achieving closer to 350 miles of range. “A full tank” can mean mean a lot of things. How many gallons is it taking to full after 265 miles?



What car can go 1000 miles on one tank?


Several cars can travel 1,000 miles or more on a single tank, but they are typically not common models and often achieve this with specific powertrains like diesel or hydrogen. Examples include the Hyperion XP-1 hydrogen supercar, specific diesel models like the 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel and the BMW 320d EfficientDynamics, and certain hybrid vehicles like the Kia Niro Tri-Fuel. 
Hydrogen-powered cars 

  • Hyperion XP-1: A hydrogen-powered supercar that can go over 1,000 miles on a single tank of compressed hydrogen gas and has a range of 1,016 miles. 

Diesel cars
  • 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel: Can travel 1,000 miles on a single tank. 
  • BMW 320d EfficientDynamics: A specific model that has been driven over 1,013 miles on a single tank. 
  • Chevy Cruze 1.6 turbo diesel: A sedan that can achieve around 1,000 miles on one 13.7-gallon tank. 

Hybrid cars
  • Kia Niro Tri-Fuel: This hybrid, which is only sold in Italy, can travel about 1,000 miles on a single tank by using both gas and LPG (propane). 

Other examples
  • Ford Hybrid: One specific model is mentioned as potentially going 1,445 miles on a single tank.
  • Volkswagen Golf (Rabbit) diesel: A diesel model that has the potential to travel from New York to Los Angeles on one tank. 



How many miles can a Lexus RX350 go on a full tank?


2022 Lexus RX 350 Driving Range
The 2022 Lexus RX 350 has a max range of at least 570 miles using the hybrid version.
