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

[@davidmagen415]

We have a 2021 ux. The hybrid version has a much better ride either the battery weight helps or it’s sprung differently. Fit and finish is great. Little noisy but rides great and a pleasure to be in

[@guppy360]

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

[@Marcoshary]

Hi. What do you have to say about the infotainment? Is it really that bad or, you can learn how to live with it and gets to like it or, no way? :)

[@Marcoshary]

​@@guppy360 Is the suspension too stiff in the F-Sport version? If we live in an area of, potentially, bad roads? Maybe because of the rundown Run flat tires? I believe, switching them, might get a lot better.

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.

I’m torn on the UX. It’s the spiritual successor to the CT200h so I like that.. essentially a more modern and lifted CT with next gen hybrid tech.. but instead I got my 21 ES hybrid. Same gas mileage. But I do like the design and looks and size of the UX. The ES is big and I really like the size of the UX. Still torn!

[@felixli5279]

A bit strange to compare ESh vs UXh because: 1) At least 20% difference in base MSRP. 2) 1 has AWD as standard while the other can't get AWD even as an option....partly explain their similar mpg.

[@chief8268]

ES hybrid classy choice! Also i'd choose NX over UX for the extra 5000 dollars not only because it's bigger, AWD, also NX has the new infotainment system with the touch screen.

[@gerardm.5047]

@@chief8268 it was an extra 7k for all the quotes I got. Almost still did it though

[@MrMustangrick]

ES hybrid mileage is better than the UX hybrid.

[@guppy360]

@@MrMustangrick barely. Especially in FWD there’s just 2 mpg between them. Irrelevant comparison

I have a 2007 Camry with a 2.4L engine, what would be the best engine oil for this 2.4L. I have only had it for 2 months and I don't know if burns oil like they say. Could the oil you would use help to prevent oil burning? I saw that some oils have more detergent than others to help with this, is it true? I love your channel you go into great detail. Thank you.

Another great Lexus video - thank you. Love my Lexus GS 350. I also have a 2002 Camry 3.0L V6 that I'm afraid has a transmission issue where it is struggling to shift into 4th gear even when warmed up a bit. I don't have a local option for transmission repair. Could you please offer advice on purchasing from an online company that does remanufactured transmissions? I see a few of them online and would appreciate your opinion. Thank you in advance.

[@TheCarCareNut]

Hi’ honestly I don’t know of a reputable online source for a reman transmission other than the dealership or a physical location trans shop which gives you a warranty

@@TheCarCareNut I have one more question if you would be so kind. On my Lexus GS 350, how can I stop my front brake pads from squealing. Thus far I took it to the shop and they machined the rotors a bit but that didn't help. I put akebono ceramic brake pads on and that seemed to help with stopping the squealing going forward. But backing up they are really squealing. How can I stop the squealing? Thank you. I really appreciate that you take the time to do this.

Hi! They’ll need to install original shims with proper grease

Certain styling elements turned me off to it. Same with the C-HR.

In Canada. the hybrid model is the only option now no more UX 200 anymore. This is my favourite Lexus to drive also

[@mardiecruz4850]

I wonder why Lexus create an ugly car just to justify its cheapest cost.😢

[@asadb1990]

Yeah that's why i went with an older 2020 rx350 with v6. The nx and uv are like a cheap sedans turned into suv. The rx is more larger and drives like a luxury car.

[@Chitown388]

Thank you an informative video! Just a suggestion, the nature of the videos on this channel is not fast action videos, so pushing 60fps video only increases the network bandwidth and computing power required to view the video and it doesn't add to the quality of the video. Simple 1080P or 1440P would be better.

Hey, would anyone know if the 2021 Corrola sedan 2.0 petrol-hybrid has port injection or the dreaded direct injection? The reason am asking is in Europe we usually convert these to LPG which means we get mega savings also more eco friendly.

[@TheCarCareNut]

Hi! The 2.0 has both direct and port injection at the same time

@@TheCarCareNut you mean it has 2 injection systems in one engine? that is a shame what about the 1.8 hybrids.

Wow, you're closing in a quarter of a million subs!! ROCKSTAR!! Well deserved! I love that darker green color and agree with the touchpad...it's past time to go to a touch screen.

[@rightlanehog3151]

[@codincoman9019]

I drove the new UX for a week. The touchpad is for driving-oriented people, the touchscreen is for young snowflakes. A similar approach had Mazda on my 2019 Miata ND2 RF and I appreciate it.

[@fivish]

CD player!!!! Touch poad can be circumvented by use of the Speech Recognition function. The only command missing is turning off navigation which needs three Touch Pad clicks!!! The P711 hybrid transmission is great. 181 bhp is more than enough.

[@mariancapraru7809]

Does this transmission has a first gear and do you need to heatup the transmission before you drive the car? Thanks!

[@guppy360]

Yes it has a physical first gear. In very cold weather conditions you should let things heat up at least for a few minutes

[@codincoman9019]

Actually you need at least 15 minutes to heat it up, disregard the oil temperature gauge, the engine temperature is important. Until the engine gets warm, drive relaxed, without big accelerations.

[@p6102zrfxe]

Important fact left out in review of Lexus UX 250h: simple ratchet set and popping off engine cover allows replacing all 4 spark plugs well under 15 minutes saving hundreds of dollars in tuneup at dealer. Toyota Prius requires removing windshield wiper cowling.
