When it comes to reliability Lexus is unbeatable compared to Mercedes
True but so is a Toyota. And I argue that the Toyota corollary on the TNGA is more modern and desirable than Lexus is
@@naveenthemachine I do not agree. lexus is better finet is more qualitative than Toyota even if it is the same group
@@Q-anon. so it is !! it takes a lot longer to build a Lexus UX than a RAV4 for example
Who buys the cars new and drive them 4 years don't care about reliability
@@markmd9 my Lexus is 12 ..... runs like a clockwork
Just purchased 2021 Lexus
UX H I do love it. My sister has Mercedes GLA not a fan of the style and the price obviously.
I love my Lexus UX 2021. Admittedly it is restricted in the boot (UK), but for a one/person tourer it is hard to beat. It is a beautiful car to drive.
Nothing better than a Lexus ❤️
Hey mate, if you enjoy and like Lexus reviews I have a few of them, including the new UXe (as well as driving it from 100% to 0%). If you have time to watch it I would love to hear your thoughts :)
I'm glad they still got a CD Player. We are actually getting one and I have a lot of CD's.
Hear, hear!
It's very classic.
DVD ! you can watch DVD´s and enjoy best surround sound with Mark Levinson ! My Lexus has a 6DVD changer
I got myself the UX in November 2020 and what can I say? I live in southern Spain🇪🇸 and I am in love ❤ Perfect, premium, liable urban car. Out of this world. Some Mercedes crossover look like a normal car with the Mercedes sign on it. They are not premium at all. However Lexus is premium once you sit in it, the feeling of the fabrics and the driving is so smooth and heavenly 🥰 it's literally like floating on a cloud down the city and freeway 💖
Nice
Thank you!! Just drive it and you'll know
That is exactly where I will drive my UX. In the hills of Elviria…….
Got the 2019 version and very happy with the auto. Smooth driving and safety features great and should apply to all cars
We don’t have to worry about snow in Australia. Your the only reviewer I’ve come across who doesn’t like the rear of the UX. I think it looks amazing.
I live in Hawaii so I'm not concerned with snow. I ordered UX 250h premium package with atomic silver exterior and caramel interior. It has kick power lift gate and triple beam headlights.
@@eugeniocorpuz8338 I’ve ordered UX250h luxury with titanium exterior and black interior. Tentatively arriving in March, fingers crossed.
@@keithcollins1365 Congratulations Keith! If you enjoy Lexus reviews I have a few of them, if you have time to watch it I would love to hear your thoughts :)
I’m still nluv w my 2014 ct200h 😩❤️. I think this is the replacement
I am the owner of 2023 Luxury Edition, I have driven for 1500Km so far. Absolutely love the car! handling , fuel efficiency, interior and safety features. I tried radar cruise, in high way, the experience was amazing and impressed. The perfect car for daily city driving for the two people.
whats a Km?
Cool video.... Great Lexus UX for Boston, Miami, etc....
Hey Fernando, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I have a few of them, including the new UXe (as well as driving it from 100% to 0%). If you have time to watch it I would love to hear your thoughts :)
This car is smooth and comfortable. Great driving car with awd.
Always felt the UX was a compelling choice for those who don’t like these large cumbersome vehicles. I have every reason to believe the redesign will have touch control and even a better sharper look.
No touchscreen, and that is good.
@@ekimandersom4478 Wrong. Toyota Global announced the new touchscreen found in the NX to be integrated in the 2022 Lexus UX for overseas market. It is more than likely we’ll get that same new touchscreen in the 2023 UX for North American market.
the 2023 model has touch screen and no touch pad. other than that its the same.
The snowproblem isn't really a problem. In Norway we brush of the snow with a small broom before take off. Since you have to clear the glass areas for safety purposes, it's not a big job to brush the rearlight.
I own a Lexus UX F Sport 2021, Having owned 4x ct200h and 2x is300h Cars this is the best all round package, They are great to drive and own, Buy one if you get the chance you will not be dissapointed....mik
you might be the first car reviewer in the world to not like the back of the UX lol.. every other youtube reviewers around the world seem to think its the best looking part of the car.
I am special
Hey Ron, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I have a few of them, including the new UXe (as well as driving it from 100% to 0%). If you have time to watch it I would love to hear your thoughts :)
Nice video Sam! As a crossover, I don't care for the UX at all. But when I think of it as a premium hatchback, I love it!
Agreed. The UX looks more like a premium hatchback.
I agree
Rear end imo favourite looking car 😄

I have a 2021 UX250h and its great. 53 MPG with smooth quiet rapid progress.
It does have an audio CD player which I will never use.
The boot can be made bigger by removing the under tray and the tool tray.
drove it 3 days. Very good suspension, dampening and steering and handling ! Seats absolutely perfect for driving hours as well as inside insulation
Did you find the suspension too firm or in great balance between"sportiness"and comfort?
@@Marcoshary These Hybrids are no racers anyway and build for economy. So there´s no need to stiffen things up like in a Golf GTI. I liked it very much because it is way better than the suspension in my 2010 Lexus RX450H with airsuspension ! The UX you can drive much faster through corners but also more comfortable ! Its also better better than Toyota Corolla
@@kubanskiloewe Excellent! That's the type of information I'd like to have and exactly what I would like, in case I'd buy an UX. Thanks
Lexus should make a UX-F (or UX 350 F-sport) using the RAV4 Prime's powertrain. Come to think of it, the RAV4 Prime's powertrain should've debuted on the Lexus before the Toyota.
So true!!!! Very true!!!!
@@KuyaArbee it’s obvious Toyota is now beating Lexus at their own game
Rav4 powertrain will be adapted in the 2022 NX
Rav4 and UX have the same P711 hybrid drive. Its a brilliant invention.
Climate controls should be knobs for quick turning vs buttons
I dont know why they made of feature of turning off the traction control.
Wonderful review!
I am picking up my new Lexus UX 250h premium sport edition in black. Tomorrow. I think space wise it is smaller in the inside cabin and visabilty behind is limited and boot space is small but completely disagree with him saying the back doesn’t look good. The back of the car looks great!
Did gou get it?
I LOVE CD PLAYER
I have lexus200t loving it next car ux250h
I love the rear part of this car so yes, it is just personal.
That is a CD player my friend. Nothing beats CD's acoustic quality...
people who listen to modern crap like hip-hop have no idea.. of course they are happy with compressed audio from mp3s. But if you are listening to REAL music, CD is way superior. Comparing mp3 to CD is like comparing Mercedes to Lexus LOL!! The class of one over the other is obvious.
@@peterkassner3552 My great grandfather still loves his CD's.
LEXUS 👌🏻😎 TOP
It doesn't seem as "SUV" - looking as the GLA... Looks quite low, more like that higher VW Golf model. As for the Mercedes gear shifter: I too used hold back on this system but now I have one in my CLA and it's just fantastic. You don't even have to take your hand of the steering wheel to move it. I personally see no disadvantage whatsoever.
I have just ordered a UX F Sport Takami for my wife who is a big fan, we have had a long list of Lexus and definitely think it should come with the 2.5 engine, the 2.0 engine is slow!!! and with the CVT revs scream when you put your foot down, now where as noticeable with the 2,5, i have gone for the Takami to get a reasonable spec compared to other premium model, but saying that there are a lot of pro's, seats/smooth ride/efficient/quiet and agree with Sam, the front view is the best around but not huge fan from the rear, although it not awful either.
My 2 litre UX250h has the eCVT and it does not scream! Its very quiet and smooth and its quite quick. The hybrid drive works flawlessly giving very low revs at high speeds while returning 53 MPG. The Fsport is going to be less confortable and noisey.
You're the first person I see describing the rear design of this car as ugly. I do understand the weather condition in Canada however, this car is not designed for the Canadian market only, don't forget that my friend.
My camera person agreed lol
Hey Muhammad, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I have a few of them, including the new UXe (as well as driving it from 100% to 0%). If you have time to watch it I would love to hear your thoughts :)
I think he doesn't like the idea of the snow stacking up lol
We need sport version of Lexus LX 570 comes with 2 row seats to compete with Rang Rover sport.
For those of you who purchased, how many times do you fill the tank a month on average/how many miles do you tend to drive a week?
I purchased the hybrid version 5 weeks ago. I've gone almost 900 miles on almost 2 tanks of gas exactly. I think I'm at about 870 miles, and my estimated miles to empty is in the 40s. This is mainly city driving with a lot of acceleration, so it would be even better if you could coast more
is the f sport suspension a lot different than the other ux versions ? can't find one to test
No. F Sport is just an appearance package. The mechanical part of the car stays the same.
I actually prefer the rear end over the front end of the lexus.
Update Feb 23, 2023: the base UX 250h starts at 45,807 CAD (compared with 38,000 for the 2021 model..) while the GLA is at 45,000;
Just this week I’ve tried to buy one and the deception came when the salesman said the sunroof is not available (in Spain)…..
In Mazda, it is the same but very funny because the salesman said it is not available because security reasons !!!!! Ridiculous, because in Italy it is available. Mazda should train sales force not to lie in such crap mode.
Sunroof is available only in the f sport model. Sadly Lexus doesn’t allow to customize the car too much.
"It is a Lexus". Nuff said.
I have 2019 ux 200, comfort is there, but sooooo slow for the first acceleration. btw not hybrid. so more slow
I like fuel efficiency better
Hey, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I have a few of them, including the new UXe (as well as driving it from 100% to 0%). If you have time to watch it I would love to hear your thoughts :)
One will last forever. One will fall apart
Also I’d take a rav4 limited over the UX
These comments are getting old. The GLA is a much better car while it’s working than the UX
Glorified Corolla. Had one for 4 months.
If you mean price-performance ratio, yeah...I think UX is better than GLA.
IT HAS A CD PLAYER BECAUSE MANY OLDER PEOPLE BUY LEXUS AND THEY ARNT ALL USING MOBILE PHONES WITH SPOTIFY/BLUETOOTH. PLEASE USE YOUR BRAIN.
I bet lexus still didnt inherite the touch screen entertainment system? I'm tired of those garbage finger touch mouse maneuvers on the arm rest
I will take the UX for sure, low end MBs are just junks, yes, junks.

its not a CD player lol its a wireless charger slot
The Baby brother CHR drives just as well.
Except CHR has not AWD
@@keaiduo123 Some don't need it.
Lol whoever wants a Lexus nowadays will still have CDs. They'll make good use of that CD player. Lexus knows their market.
Clearly lol
I have lots of CDs but never play them. All available as FLAC or MP3. I wont be using the CD player but am wondering if I can plug in a USB flash drive and play FLAC and MP3?
Lexus for reliability , but the Mercedes interior is way way prettier.
Hey Ekim, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I have a few of them, including the new UXe (as well as driving it from 100% to 0%). If you have time to watch it I would love to hear your thoughts :)
Gla can never be forgotten, talking about ux based on Toyota Co. lexus but here is not Co. Thing but lexus design can never ever will be better than Mercedes
This is just a blinged up 2.0 litre Chr
the last comment.. "its a Lexus.. " lol.. that isn't a strong argument when the other side is "its a Mercedes"
Lots of head and leg room?? LOL As much as I like the UX ( I have both hybrid and petrol ) the interior is tiny! especially the back seats and i'm only 5'3!! How much did Lexus pay you for this? LOL
Anything over a Benz. Benz is for people who want to look cool but don't know ANYTHING about cool cars.
Hey Jeremiah, if you enjoy Lexus reviews I have a few of them, including the new UXe (as well as driving it from 100% to 0%). If you have time to watch it I would love to hear your thoughts :)
But nothing special..... jjejejejejejeje
Don't buy it . It has the same problem of all hybrid cars of lexus. They vibrate badly when speeding between 70km/h and 100km/h especially on a hill road. Nobody talks a this major issue in lexus hybrid cars and lexus refuses to provide any solution. IS models are suffering the most of this problem and all drivers of these cars are shutting up their voices. Probably they are so old to not notice the vibrations.
?? what do you smoke ? my 12 year old Lexus Hybrid with 300000 on it will have a word with you.
@@kubanskiloewe sorry but when lexus admit it, you better shut up. Drive it in a hill with speed 80 or 90 km/h and come back crying for the 12 years. Probably this lexus is your only car that you had. That is why you can't feel the difference.
@@shof7947 omg, i drove over 20 years AUDI´s and Merc´s. I had also a IS Hybrid for a few days and i never noticed what you mentioned !
I drive and ridden in quite a few Lexus and Toyota hybrid vehicles and none of them ever behaved the way you described.
So less horse power ...nice big grill to fill with snow ...I agree rear end sucks..the Gla has a foot sweep tail gate open. Gla has more back room. Sorry but that cluster looks nothing like the mbux from mercedes please give me a break. 2x 10.4 screens . The interior looks much more sexier. Map update is via live update,not cd. Sorry the mercedes GLA 200 is way better especially with sport option that this Lexus has. No where near mercedes power. Sorry my 2 cents . No turbo. Also does it have the hey mercedes or hey Lexus......
Do you have a GLA? How’s your maintenance costs? I rented a GLA to try it out before I purchased a Lexus. The GLA like any other Mercedes is over engineered, complicated user interface. Under the hood, a lot of engine components are made of plastic. Plus, the check engine light was already on for a 1200 mile almost new Mercedes. Talk about a pain in the ass to own such a car.
The GLA is far better 🌚
Life is too short to drive a boring and ugly looking car!!!!!
