Should you Buy a Lexus UX? Cheapest New Lexus Model?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Lexus UX Is the Cheapest new Lexus model but does Cheapest means worst? Not even close.
So Should you buy a Lexus UX? A new Lexus model that launched in 2019 and in a way replaced the Lexus CT.
I truly enjoyed driving this car for a week to test it and do this review. The interior in the front is a definite highlight. Small cars these days have to be cramped and loud but not this one. The front seats are very comfortable and the materials inside are a true highlight.
No car is perfect and neither is the Lexus UX. The back room space is compromised. The lack of touch screen which forces you to use the horrendous touch pad is not cool. The exterior design is something I like but I can see how it's not for everyone. it can be much at times.

    I recently bought a 2023 version of the UX Hybrid and it features an updated infotainment system, they've removed the track pad (and added seat heating and cooling buttons in its place), added a larger and wider touchscreen (also moved the screen forward on the dash), removed the CD player. The knobs on the air con vents no longer lights up in the dark.

    This is much like the Toyota Cross. It's for a specific group of people, small family, young couple, or older couple without kids and need ability to carry few things comfortably. It's an upgrade from a Toyota but not as expensive as a full Lexus SUV. I for one wouldn't mind either the Cross or the UX now that I don't need a bigger SUV, even the RAV 4 is too much for my uses. On the value side, fully loaded Cross is almost $35K and the US 200 F Sport is about $1000 more, so it would make more sense to get the Lexus than the Cross.

    Only on the very worst roads and on the absolute windiest day it might feel a little too sporty, but it’s as quiet as an ultra-luxury Lexus ES in almost all other conditions. I would never describe it as “noisy” it’s typically very quiet & smooth, and the 2023 is a quantum leap forward from the old MC platform in every conceivable way. I’m glad Lexus finally realized, “just because it’s small doesn’t mean it should feel any less luxurious.” A lot of shoppers want a refined, small vehicle and they hit a home run with this. I will never want nor need anything bigger but I want a luxury car, and this delivers on that

    I have the 2019 F Sport UX 250H, and have really enjoyed this vehicle. 64,000 miles. All the finishes interior and out have held up well, Regular gas, 8 gallon fill up gives about 350 mile range. They have gotten rid of the track pad which I like better than reaching for a touch screen. Paddle shifters are useless in a CVT. I turned off the fake engine sounds. Apple Car Play works well (wired connection). Sound system is good for music. Quiet interior. The car is pricer now than when I bought it. It is a tough choice for my next car, considering a Model Y. No range anxiety, Fill up in 3 minutes. The interior is a little tight, but I am mostly driving alone. The car value has been very good for what you get in my opinion. It is very reliable.

    I test drove both UX and current gen Corolla hatchback precisely because they are based on the same TNGA-C platform despite huge diff in MSRP. I discovered that they are on different planets in terms of interior noise level especially @ highway speed and ride refinement(i suspect different springs & shocks used for UX). After these test drives, i looked for the reasons of that huge diff in noise level and found that aside from the engine bay insulation panels mentioned in this KZread, the door & hatch sealings are more robust+elaborate on the UX than Corolla. The noise-absorbing materials inside the wheelwells also seem to be more heavy-duty on the UX. I can imagine more noise absorbing materials being used inside the UX bodyshell plus acoustic glass where i can't see from the outside. The RAV4 Hybrid i tried later has less difference in interior noise level but still inferior to the smaller UX. May be it takes upto a Toyota Venza to match the UX refinement level but then price of a comparably equipped Venza would be much higher than a UX....luckily, Venza offers more space than UX. I guess if u look closer at refinement details like i did, the notion of Lexus being just a Toyota with a nicer badge is purely b.s.

    I've drove the 2023 F sport handling version quite often and its a nice car. The upgraded screen is a lot better than this one you are showing and also the controls. I like the seats in the F sport better also. Not really cheap though in price but lots of options included. Some say its too close to the NX in price but not really since to get the same features the NX is much higher. Talking about the F sport handling model. Quiet and nice to drive. I like the size but not trying to haul a lot of people, its not made for that. Some road noise but depends on the road. Overall the changes improve it more than a small amount from some earlier versions. Plus its made in Japan which I think overall builds better cars at that plant.

It is not just stylish outside but the inside is very attractive well laid out and thought was actually put into the extra front seating. Yes the deal breakers for me would be the rear leg room and the older style non touch screen infotainment unit even though as you showed the easy to reach and adjust controls are useful and well styled.

And while I know the Venza is a fine car I assure you the Venza makes significant more road noise than the UX. It’s a Lexus despite what other people say and it feels like a Lexus. The only complaint I have when it comes to noise is under heavy acceleration the engine is a little uncouth however it’s very comfortable and a wonderful car. I always recommend test driving first but if you do get one I hope you truly enjoy it.

    The funny thing is, back in the 90's/00's Lexus had the best touchscreen nav/audio systems on the market, they were the world leaders in that area. Then they decided to ditch them in favour of a knob/trackpoint driven system in order to try and lure BMW drivers to the brand and it backfired spectacularly because BMW fans didn't want a Lexus, and it turned out Lexus fans didn't want a fake BMW iDrive in their car (shock). They eventually replaced it with the trackpad they use now but it's simply polishing a turd because they're too stubborn to admit that they made a mistake ditching touchscreens >.>

    I just bought this car and I wasn't in the market but when I sat inside my only thought was, I want this. I feel like I'm in a cockpit, the windshield and door windows kinda just blend and give you a circular 180 degrees view like a cockpit, I don't know how they did it, but it sold me immediately. I like to be frugal, cars are a liability no an investment but now I'm 43 and the seats in my Corolla hurt now, I have sciatica, some lower back and right shoulder problems from an accident 7 years ago, the car is tight compared to other luxury models but if you're not a tall person, the comfort and coziness are amazing.

    Good review AMD .. I love the UX and also the CT( too bad they are gone). AMD, a few days ago I asked if you had the Torque Spec on the 2007 Camry LE, 2007 Yaris and 2009 XD transmission drain bolt since I'll be doing drain and fill on the transmission... Not sure if you had the chance to find out the info. Thanks AMD hope to hear from you soon

    This is a very nice car. My wife owns 250h f-sport and the interior is very comfy. Not a fast car but very good daily car to drive. The infotainment is not a touch screen but I have never had problem with it as the touchpad is actually very easy to use. The e-four AWD on this car is good enough to drive in snow days. Too bad in NA we don't get the UK version which has sport+ mode, ML speakers and 360 degree camera.

    UX was the first Lexus I drove. I was extremly impressed by overall quality. There was nothing spesific I could point. But it was very well driver focused and very good qality. Everything work well and it was extremely calm ride. EXCPET ON THING! Terrbile road noise. I agree with what you mentioned in your previous videos, that run flat tires are useless. I drove a model with run flat tires and road noise was unbearable. I felt like I was driving a comercial vehicle. I hope it is only because of the tires. I hope more comfortable tires would make the ride smoother, which I am looking forward to drive :) May god bless you, and have a wonderful day :)

I have not replaced them yet and i believe that's something that is done when the pads and rotors are replaced, they also suggested the coolant be flushed and replaced but yet it's still pink and clear so i believe these are just things they wanted to hopefully get me to say yes to. thank you and have a great day!
