Generations and what they mean for you
| Model | Rough years | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| RX 400h | 2006–2008 | Nickel-metal hydride, 288V, thirty 9.6V modules. Complete packs are hard to source new, so refurbished is usually the route. |
| RX 450h | 2010–2022 | The same 288V, thirty-module design. Module repair is available when the failure is concentrated. |
| Newer RX hybrids | 2023 on | Still inside Lexus hybrid component coverage for most owners. Call a dealer with your VIN before paying anyone. |

Repair or replace
