How Lexus maintenance differs in the luxury vehicle world

Who hasn't heard that German cars are generally much more expensive to maintain? Indeed, the components on Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz brand vehicles are known to break more quickly, and the warranties on these offer less comprehensive coverage than at Lexus, for example. Here are some explanations on the subject.

Less expensive and better designed components

A multitude of factors make the maintenance of a Lexus much more affordable than a German vehicle’s service. First, the most important factor, the cost of parts. German luxury brand replacement parts are much more expensive and may be more difficult to obtain. Substitutions are also more difficult to make, and scarcity contributes to inflating prices.

If Lexus offers reliable and reputable vehicles, the same could be said of the Germans except that they also require very rigorous and frequent maintenance. Due to their unique and often complex mechanical technologies, it is important not to deviate from these regular visits to the dealership.

As for Lexus, the reliability of its vehicles has been proven time and time again. In fact, Lexus has been at the top of the JD Power reliability study in the United States for several years, showing that the acquisition of a Lexus vehicle is usually a stress-free experience.

Lexus vehicles also offer improved protections that give you greater peace of mind. For example, all Lexus vehicles come with a 72-month unlimited mileage corrosion warranty, during which any sheet metal panel of the body that would show, during normal use, a perforation due to corrosion will be fixed.

There’s also a comprehensive 48-month or 80,000 km warranty, which covers the repair of any genuine Lexus part, attributable to a defect in material or workmanship, under normal use.
