Lexus UX 250H VS Volvo XC40 T5 - AWD Snow And Hill Test. Is Hybrid Lexus Capable AWD SUV?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2024
- In this video, we will compare the 2020 Volvo XC40 T5 Inscription with the 2020 hybrid Lexus UX 250H.
We will do a quick run in Volvo since we have already tested the XC40 in a couple of our videos (see links below). Volvo has proven to have a very capable AWD system (Gen 5 Haldex).
After that, we will test the Lexus UX 250H. Our goal is to see if Lexus's all-wheel-drive system (Electric Motor On The Rear Axle) is capable of dealing with winter conditions.
All Season Tires Used:
Volvo XC40 - Michelin Primacy MXM4 - 235/50 R19 - amzn.to/3ZMKB8V.
Lexus UX 250H - Bridgestone Turanza EL450 - 225/50 RF18 - amzn.to/403Jstl.

Toyota RAV4 XLE AWD VS Electric Volvo XC40 P8 Recharge. AWD Snow And Ice Hill Test - th-cam.com/video/dya-61KJMHU/w-d-xo.html.
Wife drives the UX 250H Lexus, We love the gas mileage and ease of use around town it's solid on the road and quiet, We live in an area that gets lots of winter weather, Ice and Snow tires are a must in Canada once november comes around, yes there is a huge improvement if you have the proper tires especially stopping in cold weather.
( it's all about the tires where we live.) Thanks for showing the cars with all seasons tires in the snow was perfect.
The UX 250 Rear wheels are powered by an electric motor only that disengages after you hit a certain speed to regenerate the batteries. It may be that once it detected the high rpms it shut off to conserve energy. Not sure if that's what happened but certainly a possibility.
It's also because he was on normal mode. He should put sport mode ON so that the electric engines are giving max power all the time
@@lorenzolitterio He activated Sport mode.
I think the rear wheels at the Lexus were working all the time but the rear motor is so weak that it can't spin the wheels so you can see them working, only when some of them got low friction.
of course! It has 7hp only on rear wheels
Great video :-) Glad I found the channel
It sounds like a creepy science-fiction movie! lol 4:44
Many cars with only small electric motor on the back are not real awd cars. This should have some other name, maybe e-awd or something.
I also think the rear wheels of the lexus were working, but the motor is not capable enough to make them spin, specially going uphill when they have more load...However i do think that it needs a bigger engine on the rear, 15bhp won't hurt i reckon...
Just picked up an UX and came across this video. With the UX, you can see that both front tires are spinning but the car isn't moving even when the rear wheels kick in which means it a tire issue. I'm sure if you got rid of those OEM runflat tires even if go with a different all season tires, the results will probably be better.
The run flats are TERRIBLE unless you are wanting it to perform like an F1 car. I just had two blow out simultaneously on potholes. Pro: was that I was able to limp it home and strip the entire car and have them replaced with real tires without damaging the rim; Con: these tires hit hard like it was a performance tire with 10 PSI too much.
The problem is that rear barely kicks in. In Volvo it is spinning all the time, in UX rear axle is dead. Tiny 3.9 kW rear electric motor is just a helper, it's operation is very limited.
What’s your opinion about the trunk? Is it really too small? Is this car any good if you have a baby in the back?
@@snalemsnolek1539 It's a subcompact SUV so it is tiny, but for me, who is semi retired, and it's just me and the wife who mostly drive around in the city, it is perfect. Having said that, this wasn't our first choice. We didn't buy what we wanted, we bought what they had.
The hybrid battery and rear motor takes up space so the trunk and rear seats are cramp. If you have a baby, I would move up to a compact SUV, like the RAV4 or if you want a Lexus, a NX.
@@snalemsnolek1539yes it’s fine. It’s actually ideal for smaller passengers under 6’.
Rear wheels drive by electric only what if battery empty 😊 . And some cars never let rear wheels spin,but give full traction as Honda ch-r . And this is not for hard off road , but Ux did great. 👍🏽
Why you didn't test snow mode UX？
Doesn’t have a Snow Mode
They should really let you select which individual wheel to send power to via the infotainment screen. This should be common sense, not sure why car brands don't have this. The government should mandate all manufacturers to have this function.
The computer forgotten he has awd system
Low profile tires are a big liability
if you don't use winter tyres, you'll never come on top of a snowy hill. Whetever kind of car us use
Ux All time
Lexus even in fwd mode 😂 only it seems to have better grip on the front wheels, it throws more snow and looks gripper
Wow, I just bought a UX and live in the heart of Canada and that was BRUTAL! Good thing I kept my Tacoma for the snowy days. This is the worst AWD performance that I have ever seen. I'd take this vehicle in for service if I didn't know better. That one tire skip that we seen looked like it wanted to work for a split second, then blew its wad and went back to bed.
Just put proper winter tires and your UX and you are good to go. We have the front Wheel drive UX and even with that its easy in the winter. Of course we have good winterr tires.
@@markus8484 Nokian Hakka's 10, picked (studded) and it still operates like a FWD sorry to say. The only thing saving it is the extra weight from the batteries in the back
@@tgan71 The same issue is with Toyota Yaris Cross. Rear axle is doing nothing when you need it the most.
Toyota Lexus hybrids and awd aren’t friends together 😂👌
You should get familiar with the Owner’s manual. They recommend tire chains in low traction situations. Maybe not try off roading with run flat tires next time 😂😂🙅 didn’t give it a fair shake!!
That's just a small hill with a little bit of snow. Average winter tyre and average awd system would be more than enough. Here, Volvo system can at least spin all wheels, Lexus cant.
Да потому что вы подключаймую муфту не путайте с эл. Мотором на задней оси. У него мощность 7-15 л.с. и настроен он так себе. А если батарея разряжена, все куку. Нет тяги. Так что как и на всех гибридах с полным приводом, проходим ходом на прямых колесах, жмем аккуратно, потому как антибукс если почует неладное, засадит авто быстрее неопытного водителя.
тест на шляпной нешипованной "всесезонке"? серьезно?
я езжу на таком лексусе, ниразу нигде незастрял(с учетом мизерного клиренса конечно, на целине он сразу сядет)
@@amamamam1111 как разгон? ДВС прямовпрысковый ?
You need a Subaru crosstrek
🤓
I have a crosstrek, and was wondering how it would have done on this hill. Have had good snow performance with it in the NE. Getting a new car next year and was interested in the UX (or Corolla Cross) because of the better mileage. Not so sure now...
My Subaru would plow up that shit no Problems
I own a Lexus ES 2WD and I live in the true-blue SNOW BELT (Geneva, Ohio). we had a huge snowstorm where we got the most snow in the area of 22.5inches of snow. I own a huge house and my driveway is over a football field long. the snow drifts alone were over 36inches deep.
My 2wd drive can handle the snow quit well. I drive 85mph when there was slush on I-90 driving my ex girlfriend 50 miles away for her appointment.
I make jet engines for the Air Force, Howmet, Boeing, Gulfstream, NASA, etc. and I do not know where this is filmed...but you had the Volvo pack down the snow to develop an icy base and then you tried to drive another car over it. wow.
Your vernacular/dialect sounds Russian.
Hi William, thank you for the comment. In this case the road was already icy underneath the snow. Even before Volvo drove on it. In my opinion conditions were very similar. This was filmed in Canada.
@@MorozovAutomotive he didn’t ask where it was filmed. He asked if you are Russian lol.
@@the.magnus Actually he did not ask any questions. He was making assumptions.
@@MorozovAutomotive Canada is Russia, if not it will be soon.
Is this a comment about the car performance in snow or your lifestyle you wish to tell everyone about ? Wow, unbelievable.
the rear electric motor hasn’t enough torque or/and converter doesn’t deliver rear motor enough power or both of this 😂
ONLY LEXUS
