The model
Read full Lexus UX reviewThe UX is an interesting alternative to established premium family SUVs, with distinctive looks and a very efficient hybrid system. However, it's only the promise of good fuel economy, cheap company car tax, and Lexus's excellent reliability that appeal. The driving experience is so-so, and practicality is poor for a family SUV. As a result, it's impossible to recommend it over a Volvo XC40 or Range Rover Evoque, and if you want a hybrid SUV you'd be better off with a larger Toyota RAV4 for the same money.
The trim
See full equipmentTop-spec Takumi favours comfort and convenience over sportiness. It brings adaptive LED headlights, a head-up display, 13-speaker Mark Levinson sound system upgrade, powered bootlid, keyless entry and 360-degree parking camera and a sunroof. It's too expensive to recommend, though.
