2022 Lexus UX 250h - DM First Drive | Review

[@koichi.k1161]

I think it's great. I don't think believe there is a more luxurious car at this size or price.

[@nxau120]

I own one and really love it.

[@pearlcrystal7802]

Same ! I see alot of videos made that people bash the suv and I love mine !!!

[@eugeniocorpuz8338]

I just got mine and I love it. My friends who ride with me are impressed by the quiet and smooth ride. It is atomic silver exterior with glazed caramel interior.

[@fivish]

My UX250h is so nice. 56 MPG! Its also quite quick. Reasonably quiet and smooth. Nobody buys the F-Sport or FWD. Looks great in white mica pearl.

[@kubanskiloewe]

drove it for 3 days and was impressed about ride quality and steering and very good all in all seating and driving feel ! As a Lexus RX owner the only downside is the noisy 4cyl under stress and synthetic sound shit.

My Navy daughter owns a UX200. We've gotten 30+mpg from Day #1. It's not fast, but it's quick off the line. It scales our Mojave Desert mountains without challenge. We've had ZERO PROBLEMS. With just about 20k miles in our hot, dusty, rugged, desert terrain...that says something.

ASC Active Sound Control switch with a green "power on" light is easy to locate and turn off and stay off😃 A great review.

[@baldheadlogic]

Very Positive Review Charlie. I think this car would sell much better with more interior room and a more powerful engine option.

[@smaxwell4062]

Try the new NX. It fits all your criteria.

[@migs671]

Yes you basically describe a nx lol

[@williamlong2682]

The hybrid kind of has a niche to itself in this segment considering there isn’t another one in this segment I can think of, and that’d definitely be the version I’d go for, though I’d skip the F Sport fluff. I’d pass on the gas-only version considering I don’t think it does anything a Mazda CX-30 can’t. And you could probably get into the Turbo version of that for the same price or even slightly less.

[@rightlanehog3151]

Charlie, As a 'means of transportation', I want to see how the upcoming Corolla Cross Hybrid compares to the fancy pants Lexus UX 250h. As both are built on the same platform with the same wheelbase, it will be very interesting to see whether the price difference between the two models is justified.

[@DailyMotor]

From my brief time in both, I would say the price is justified. The CC certainly feels like an entry Toyota, which is not to say cheap, but certainly a step down from a Venza or Highlander. The UX manages to feel nicer than any Toyota-badged product.

[@rightlanehog3151]

@@DailyMotor Let's see if the addition of a Hybrid powertrain for the Cross closes the gap. 😉

[@DailyMotor]

@@rightlanehog3151 I think that'll make it more desirable to drive, but it won't change the feel of the interior. Two very different customers, I believe.

@@rightlanehog3151 Bingo :D Although to be pedantic, it would be "non trust-fund holders". I worked on the copy team when C/D still copy edited all their stories.

[@NEMMtube]

The 2022 version shall have the touch screen, in addition to the touch pad!

[@yiyu7096]

really? I only find news say 2023 version has a touch screen

[@paulgantz9198]

What package gives you full nav screen? Many models I have seen look like the real estate of the screen isn't fully utilized. But I like the vehicle.

[@Panda.gultom]

Did you record it using GO Pro 10? LOve it

[@nikhilgohil8808]

Hey, I was planning to get a 2022 Rav4 XLE Premium until I randomly came across this vehicle which comes at almost the same price segment. My requirements are a compact SUV with a Hybrid engine and an AWD system. I don't have much space requirements as of now but want to keep my car for a long term so thinking if this Lexus would be a good family car or should I go with Rav4.

[@DailyMotor]

UX is good for two-person family only. If you plan on having kids with this car, I would go larger, as a rear-facing car seat and stroller in the trunk would be very very tight.

[@jkahn923]

I got mine and I love it except for the touch pad. It’s literally a deal breaker and I may trade in for the NX just for this one missing feature

[@DailyMotor]

New NX system is a game changer.

[@jkahn923]

@@DailyMotor it’s pretty sad to say this in 2022. You can get a civic with touchscreen similar touchscreen infotainment. It’s standard on every car

[@lukeheffernan]

That fake noise is absolutely terrible

[@N8RTH]

Lol those shift sounds are so stupid. But overall, this car seems great!

[@mikej238]

Lol No Prius has a 2 litre engine and 181 hp.
