LEXUS made a proper luxury car on the TOYOTA Yaris platform. Something AUDI keeps failing to do with their VW platforms, and ends up with overprived Golfs, Crosses and Tiguans.

Audi is synonymous with incompetent so it's not a surprise

Wow, I come from a time when wings rusted and needed welding back on, windows leaked, heaters didn't work until you had driven several miles, if it started first time it was a bonus and even wheels fell off ( yes one of mine did on a Morris Ital ) my dads car had a starting handle !!!!!! this car was the stuff of dreams back then, it makes me laugh when some criticize it 🙂 This is definitely top of my shortlist, I currently have a Mokka which is great, but I need a non manual now and a bit more luxury.

CVT as part of a hybrid system is far more effective than with a standard non hybrid engine. Allows seemless transition between modes in normal UK driving.

It is noisy when it revs in early gears, but it you do not notice the gear changes. it's very smooth (perhaps a bit too smooth for some people).

Good to see a car like this. You used to be able to buy a Renault 5 Monaco, 205 Roland Garos, Metro Vanden Plas etc then they all abandoned top trims and went cheap. I want a small, more luxurious car and this fits the bill.

A very thorough review, covering a lot of (perhaps) minor (but non-the-less important to some) points often not covered in a typical YT review. I'm a pensioner an I currently have a Toyota C-HR which has the brands planetary gear CVT sytem. I have been amazed at the smoothness and efficiency of it's operation, so the LBX installation must be even better. This review mentions to the effect that Lexus didn't try to create a 'made down to a price' build. They certainly managed that (!) but (as an example) not including a 'through' hatch in the rear seat was penny (yen 😂) pinching ! One slight critique if I may : I'm a pensioner who likes the concept of this car (based on my C-HR experience) and a majority of my driving is on urban roads. As is often the case with YT reviews ... most of the 'on-the-move' ride assessment was (apart from emerging from junctions) scuttling along country lanes (I ride a motocycle as well so do enjoy that). I've seen other reviews which refer to the slightly 'fidgety' nature of the LBX's slower speed ride . Apologies if I missed a reference to that inherent nature of the car here, but, with the poor state of the UK's modern roads, that could potentionally be a deal-breaker from my perspective ! I don't have knowledge of a 'typical' Lexus driver's style in my mind (unlike the strereotypical view of Audi drivers !) but I'm guessing the typical LBX purchaser would not likely be a regular lane-racer (although good to know the car's capabiliies, for sure).

The tyres look too big I would prefer to see lower profile ones with a bigger wheel. I love the fact that a premium small car is here and who better than Lexus to bring it. The top of the range is however very expensive and I’m that person who loves their Mark Levinson hifi and as I’m looking to change down from an NX to a smaller size and still wanting that premium feel.
@gerrycollins23353 ай бұрын
Not for me: big wheels and narrow tyres may look sporty, but they don't absorb the bumps on our poor road surfaces, they are less fuel-efficient than small wheels and normal tyres, and the wheels are likely to be damaged scraping on kerbs.

All Lexus/Toyota Hybrid cars are using CVT transmission which is more efficient and more reliable than dual clutch transmission.

You have plenty of 'basic' cars in this segment. Whole point is to sell something different. Something which other brands seems to be abandoning at all.
