New Lexus UX is a classy little crossover: New 2019 Lexus UX crossover Review & Road Test

Описание: The new Lexus UX is Toyotas premium brand entry-level crossover. This means the model must leave a lasting impression on its potential customers. The problem is, this segment in the automotive market is saturated with options from every brand, including the Audi Q3, the BMW X1, Volvos XC40, and the Mercedes GLA-Class. Considering all this competition, the UX however, is notably the best value for money.
Unlike larger luxury crossovers, the compact crossover segment is far more flamboyant with quirky designs & brash colour options. The UX achieves the aforementioned in bucket loads however the latter fails to impress with our test car in a rather uninspiring white. Inside theres a large display on top of the dash, with a simple row of controls sitting centralised beneath the screen. Lexus have taken the UX’s steering from other models in the range and it features the same LFA-inspired layout in the gauge cluster. It’s all very attractive! But, looks aren’t everything and while the UX is comfortable, the cabin is very noisy when out on the road. Despite being on the noisier side, the UX does make up some points with a very comfortable ride and a set of uber comfy front seats. The three-across backseat is slightly less generous in the space department comparing it to its competitors and the door cutouts are quite small, which makes getting in and out of the back row a bit awkward. The luggage space is acceptable coming close to the same amount of space found in an Audi Q3 and the Mercedes GLA-Class, but a fair bit less than the BMW X1.
The 169 BHP 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine transmits power via a continuously variable transmission. In spite of that, the car is still a little bit sluggish off the line. However, what the UX lacks in outright power, it makes up with some seriously good handling. Theres minimal body roll & the short wheelbase gives it a nice competent agile feel. The UX definitely performs more like a luxury SUV than a hot hatch.
As Lexus’s entry-level CUV, the buyer is bound to be younger, so the car cleverly comes with a plethora of features to appeal to Millennials. For instance, theres Smartwatch integration, Google Assistant compatibility and 4G WiFi hotspot for up to five devices all come as standard. Economy wise, the UX achieves 29 miles per gallon in the city, 37 mpg highway and an overall 33mpg combined. This is better than the BMW X1 and the Audi Q3. Pricewise, the UX starts from £29,000. I would highly recommend purchasing the upgraded Premium package, which adds blind-spot mirrors, a moon roof, heated and ventilated front seats, rain-sensing wipers, and Lexus’s rather nice-looking Washi interior trim.
