MPG on my UX 250 h, after nine months of driving in a variety of situations, is actually 42.8 Have not reset the trip meter since February. It is an amazingly comfortable, quiet, and efficient vehicle. Your reviews are awesome.
I own one of these, but it is silver. It is very sharp and comfy. My average mpg is 41.1, factoring in a variety of driving scenarios. Love your reviews. Keep up the great work.
My 2019 UX250h gets an average of 40.1 mpg. It's just a matter of how you drive. I've even had 45 or 46 on some short trips that were relatively flat. What drinks the gas is quick startups from stop and steep upgrades. If you can coast down the hills, you can make up a little.
It should be corrected (at 9:24) that the E-four is used to precisely control the front-rear torque (but not the power, since the 7-hp/40-lb-ft rear electric motor is not powerful enough) distribution in ratios between 100:0 and 20:80 when accelerating, cornering, or driving on slippery surfaces.
its just for grip when you really need it, only useable below 80kph if I remember correctly. Just a thing for grip in bad conditions. Seen a few tests and it does suprise me but it aint no subaru awd :P
As far as I remember about Hybrid's, they're meant to have better fuel economy in the stop'n'go traffic city driving, not long distance trips because they don't get to much chances to regenerate energy.. Good video, nice color on the Lexus! :D
Great review, as usual, Sarah. That is a car my wife would absolutely love! Not too many reviewers give the information in such an amusing fashion. Kudos!
Wow! A Lexus Space Capsule complete with Vintage 1963 Mattel V-Rroom II Hot Rodder Engine Motor for that 'Sound of Power!' I can' wait to see what their rev 2 of this thing is like...
Sarah, you are so darn good with these reviews. LOVED the shot with the ant hole in the foreground,too. Have a great time at SEMA. Wish I could go this year.
Cute little wagon. They've made some trade-offs with the hybrid combining it with AWD - that's adding even more weight, so that ends up killing a bit of the hybrid benefit. The standard FWD non-hybrid version is several hundred pounds lighter, so it's likely going to feel better in the corners, and it's highway economy is virtually identical to the hybrid. The hybrid aspect in this vehicle really only benefits you around town. To their credit, the cost differential between the entry-level version and the standard (non-F-type) hybrid is only about $2,000 - whether it's worth it or not will depend on the individual. At least this is a pretty inexpensive Lexus, starting around $32k. Infiniti's QX30 starts at $30k, but has worse MPG. If you don't need a wagon, Acura's entry-level ILX starts under $26k, but again, has worse MPG (all the more surprising since it's lightest of the group - come on Honda!). Anyway, great video as always Sarah! :-)
Sarah.. I like the idea of black on the trims.. looks like a little go getter and homerun hitter.. also it doesn't hurt that I so much dig the color.. a plus 2 is you can wear that yellow..
Wow... I'm here really early... Actually beat the notification... That's a first. Hello Sarah, just wanted to say that while I don't like import cars at all (I'm into American muscle), I like your videos, and your presentation method for them. That being said, I still watch most of your videos for the awkwardness, weird jokes, innuendo, and 90's and 2000's movie quotes. 😉
Hi Sarah, just a suggestion and something you probably have considered, but if not, I personally would love to see you do some side-by-side comparison/reviews between similar vehicles. I think your review vids are great and you actually have (in my opinion) some credibility when it comes to assessing a vehicle for performance, comfort, value etc. Just throwing it out there for ya. Hope the elbow is feeling better! :)
yeah buddyyyy!! i finally caught up to the most recent video!! fyi it takes about 2 weeks of casual watching of all sarah's videos to be caught up. great stuff!! going to be shooting a shoutout to your channel on my next weeks video =P keep up the good work
Nice review, Sarah. Love the clip of the ants in your video. Your ongoing effort to show us nature at its finest. Wow...no penguins, too. An all-important detail in the stats. of this car. Keep up the great work. Love your channel.
It would be right not to call it a gas pedal. The car called it an accelerator pedal (rightly so) meaning it makes the car accelerate. Some engineers decided how much gas to give it (and electricity, too).
Very interesting review of a very unusual car, a Lexus a F sport a highbred a crossover all in one.A difficult review for most but you make it fun and informative a Porky spaceship LOL and absolutely black on the trim what were they thinking thanks for all the fun happy Halloween!
Think the word you were looking for is fins. Cars from the mid to late 50s all had fins to some degree. That styling cue was based on jet planes because the 1950s was the jet age. Before that it was Art Deco styling. Which is the best styling of any period in automotive history in my humble opinion. Great review Sarah. Happy Halloween 🎃
In time those cool wheel arch mouldings will dull or fade and turn a grey color, so better if they were body colored, shiny gloss grill will scratch up from washing and cleaning out those bugs. But still a well made car underneath though You could modify it's appearance later down the road I guess
Is this supposed to be the new CT 200h? I am just a little surprised with very little power combined gas and battery, lexus still labeled F sport. And it doesn't sounds very sporty according to your review. Btw, those were huge ants!!
i don't like the fender's but the rest of the car is kinda cool and the grill reminds me of darth vader thank's sarah with an h why a and not h if i might ask
Thinking that the Lexus folks should consider adding a S into the vehicle name. Looks aggressive on the outside, but seems like a dog for a Lexus. Perhaps a LS swap option package should be offered?
It's a basic hybrid, it's not meant to be fast, if it were, you'd be looking more along the lines of the new NSX or the 918. This is not in the same category, I got my UX as I wanted simple fuel efficiency with a few more interior feel than a Prius, I have also owned another LS460 and a few other sportier cars, but at the sacrifice of fuel economy obviously. For one to compare an entry-level hybrid to something "fast" isn't an informative review, in my opinion.
It's an overpriced Corolla chr for people that have their head up their a**. Who ever became the lead designer at Lexus at around 2008 is smoking some really good stuff if they think their front end looks good. Quite the opposite actually and it basically done for weight reduction, hollow plastic is cheaper and lighter than solid panels. Sarah your reviews are always entertaining and offbeat which I love. But I seriously would rather see a review on that fiat 500 than this Lexus or that previous civic review. Seriously they need a helmet instead of a "gas" pedal if you can't ever rev a vehicle. That's part of the excitement of driving, hearing the car go through the motions not faking it like an uninterested date.
Sooo thats what a toyota rav 4 looks like with the lexus body kit option. Edit: also when that led stip fails that going to cost you at least 700+ to replace.
With a transverse mounted engine, I don't think it can transfer any power to the back wheel, it's just the dedicated dink electric motor back their that's powering up the rear wheels.
MPG on my UX 250 h, after nine months of driving in a variety of situations, is actually 42.8 Have not reset the trip meter since February. It is an amazingly comfortable, quiet, and efficient vehicle. Your reviews are awesome.
Your pronunciation of UX while keeping a straight face was priceless!
I had to rewatch that moment if i heard and seen it right😅
Agreed.
I own one of these, but it is silver. It is very sharp and comfy. My average mpg is 41.1, factoring in a variety of driving scenarios. Love your reviews. Keep up the great work.
Love your car reviews - always!!! I am surprised that some of the auto companies do not complain about your honesty.
Your reviews are the sh*t! Funny, quirky, charming all while being stylish plus very informative. I love this channel!
«They make works of art that are cars.» I couldn’t have put it better myself! 👍

I love it. You are reviewing a Lexus and I got a Carmry and a Bently comercial.

181 HP (combined) + CVT = WOW
Thank good they made it all-wheel drive to handle the power. 🙂
its just for grip when you really need it, only useable below 80kph if I remember correctly. Just a thing for grip in bad conditions. Seen a few tests and it does suprise me but it aint no subaru awd :P
The little sound effects in your edit are so funny. Seriously lol
There's some car on your grill!
I don’t know how many times I have watched that opening! Laugh every time!
LOVE THE COLOR!
As far as I remember about Hybrid's, they're meant to have better fuel economy in the stop'n'go traffic city driving, not long distance trips because they don't get to much chances to regenerate energy.. Good video, nice color on the Lexus! :D
Like the litle luxury car with personality
I really enjoyed your sense of humor and your review.
So F Sport UX, or FUX for short?
FSUX
You must be in 5th grade
Deftones - Passenger.....the best track to listen to while testing the space in the back seat!
if it was silver that front end would look like an old-scool Cylon from the original BattleStar Galactia
Love the technical/ scientific information.
Great review, as usual, Sarah. That is a car my wife would absolutely love! Not too many reviewers give the information in such an amusing fashion. Kudos!
Wow! A Lexus Space Capsule complete with Vintage 1963 Mattel V-Rroom II Hot Rodder Engine Motor for that 'Sound of Power!'
I can' wait to see what their rev 2 of this thing is like...
This is my favorite review you’ve done yet!
Sarah, you are so darn good with these reviews. LOVED the shot with the ant hole in the foreground,too. Have a great time at SEMA. Wish I could go this year.
LC500h is suppose to get 27 city, 35 highway., and 30 combined. Take that to Phoenix and see what you get.
Cute little wagon. They've made some trade-offs with the hybrid combining it with AWD - that's adding even more weight, so that ends up killing a bit of the hybrid benefit.

I have not been a big fan since Lexus went to those big grills and I would be afraid the way the tail lights stick up they could get broken easier
My desert babe! Yes, Lexus is/are looking fantastic JDM 👍👍👍 Great review as always!
For me it's not so much what a car looks like. It's MSRP starts at $36,350. A Lexus hybrid, with awd at that price is pretty amazing.
Sarah.. I like the idea of black on the trims.. looks like a little go getter and homerun hitter.. also it doesn't hurt that I so much dig the color.. a plus 2 is you can wear that yellow..
Nice video Sarah keep up the good work👍👍👍
The sport mode just makes you feel good about yourself.
Wow... I'm here really early... Actually beat the notification... That's a first.

Lex is beattttttttttttttttt... were all here to see u though so its cool
The tail lights look like a elongated version of Maximilian's eye from the black hole
53rdcards I haven’t heard reference to that robot in a long time!
Speaking of robots, the front reminds me of a Battlestar Galactica Cylon.
@@lorenzo2011ist Wonder if the owner of this could change the fake engine noise to "By your command"
Now that’s an ancient reference.

your reviews are funny! Subscribed!
You should paint or have someone paint, Sarah n Tuned on the abandoned warehouse wall.
Cute vid! Love it!
Yes!! I’m on the fence on buying this exact car. Thank you.
I love it when you check the bolsters.
It would be right not to call it a gas pedal. The car called it an accelerator pedal (rightly so) meaning it makes the car accelerate. Some engineers decided how much gas to give it (and electricity, too).
Bring on Player 2! You should always open the trunk or frunk and introduce Player 2 - and Kyla should pop out! Nice review...
Grill sucks. Sarah rocks
Awesome review, you do great car reviews and I love your special touch, brings a smile. Great job.
Very interesting review of a very unusual car, a Lexus a F sport a highbred a crossover all in one.A difficult review for most but you make it fun and informative a Porky spaceship LOL and absolutely black on the trim what were they thinking thanks for all the fun happy Halloween!

I think the rear winglet is for the tire poke in the back. The RC F has the same thing.
Good Job on the Review, Sarah
Don't know if it's the lighting but @2:39 the paint looks like it has a lot of orange peel, not a good look for a Lexus.
6:30 : "we should smile now ... right ?? lol the best face ever" ... always be positive " at least its smooth " iloved it

You could modify it's appearance later down the road I guess
Just a detail. But the UX250h isn't a hot hatch ? Form and function are those of a compact SUV.
I'm new to the channel and I love your car reviews Sarah. You make them entertaining.
hahah, , love the award audio and trophy for the small fenders
love your channel! keep them coming...from your Canadian neighbour
Dont worry we all love your TTs
I’d go with the gloss black for the window trim/roof rails.
Awesome review 👍🏎️
Gloss black that would have looked much better on the roof rails as well as the belt and window moldings. Especially with dark tint.
hello sarah I love your channel , have a fantastic day and happy halloweeeeeen
I liked the car review but I didn't like the car that much. Kudos to you and Kyla for trying it out though.
At 2:29, is that orange peel paint optional? Shameful for a Lexus.
Victor Matroni Looks like any other paint...
Sarah thanks for the entertaining videos . Nice to see a girl who loves cars.
I love you videos!!
Great review & great car
Oh this was something else
Washi was said right. It's neat vehicle. Interesting it can't be rev'd even in neutral.
You could fit a rock hopper penguin in that center console.
Deftones with Meynard from tool....best ever
Did you check out the is500? Finally US release
"escape capsule" its an escape capsule for inter stellar travel when a collision is about to happen
❤️❤️❤️This was hilarious! Thank you !!! So true :)
Is this supposed to be the new CT 200h? I am just a little surprised with very little power combined gas and battery, lexus still labeled F sport. And it doesn't sounds very sporty according to your review.
Btw, those were huge ants!!
I think all cars should have black trim around the windows and black roof cargo mount and not have any kind
i don't like the fender's but the rest of the car is kinda cool and the grill reminds me of darth vader thank's sarah with an h why a and not h if i might ask
The front end looks like jeremy clarksons face drifing the arial atom fast
haha, the armrest swings both ways. so funny :)
Thinking that the Lexus folks should consider adding a S into the vehicle name. Looks aggressive on the outside, but seems like a dog for a Lexus. Perhaps a LS swap option package should be offered?
I love this channel!! Sarah, you should mention your Patreon from time to time.
i just started seeing these on the road this week, still not sure if its a baby suv or a little station wagon
It's a basic hybrid, it's not meant to be fast, if it were, you'd be looking more along the lines of the new NSX or the 918.

Rocking Sactown's Deftones. Nice
Two science Sarah`s one episode awesome,,
gloss black and darker window tint. plus lower the stance a bit.
Might as well get the Toyota Corolla hatchback then.
Sooo thats what a toyota rav 4 looks like with the lexus body kit option.
Edit: also when that led stip fails that going to cost you at least 700+ to replace.
We all look stupid too somebody, lmao. I love your reviews. Please never change.
Cylon taillight is a bit much...but that little car KIX.
Lexus front ends remind me of Robot from Lost in Space.
With a transverse mounted engine, I don't think it can transfer any power to the back wheel, it's just the dedicated dink electric motor back their that's powering up the rear wheels.
Pars S / Wrong, even with a transverly mounted engine, it is possible to transfer power to the back. The Honda Ridgeline is a good example.
@@j.r.arnolli7494 I guess I'm wrong. The Lexus UX can send 90 percent of its power to the rear wheels !?!!
So much tech in cars now...
Scotty hates that grille too.
You seem happier doing car reviews. That's nice to see
Love the new jeans 👖 look.
