Default NX450h+ New Owner…

Actually, owner-to-be. Picking it up Monday. For all the 450h+ (PHEV) owners, what is the one thing you wish you would have known and/or done when you first got the car that you didn’t do? Oh — Level 2 charger being installed later this week.

Thanks in advance.

I like installing mud flaps which you can get cheaper on Amazon. Mud flaps are good because it protects your paint and has less tar getting up there. I have a Ultra Sonic Blue 450h + F Sport. I diidnt really need or want the F Sport but it is required for Ultra Sonic Blue and it seems like my dealer mostly gets F sport for the 450+ models.

Default Things to do before car delivery

Just picked up my girlfriends 2024 NX450+ last week. VERY glad i downloaded all the Quick start guides and full manual before picking it up. Still have a myriad of questions, but at least got a jump on it! ALSO- practice using the new gearshift!!! I went thru the car wash at her request and was so stressed trying to turn off the auto windshield wipers when thee attendant sprayed the windshield that I couldn't find neutral. That, and remembering how to open the door handles led me to an early beer thirty...

Maybe consider purchasing tire protection out the gate if it's reasonably priced lol. I knicked one of my rims on the third day in but thankfully quickly got over it.

There are mobile repair vendors that do great work. I bought the Multi but getting a new wheel, tire, repair is cheaper than the plan.
