Few luxury crossovers combine a gas-electric hybrid system with both powerful performance and available all-wheel drive, though the 2023 Lexus UX Hybrid does so effortlessly. This spacious crossover offers drivers plenty of different styles to choose from, including two sport-inspired ones, and integrates intelligent technology throughout its cabin and convenient driver-assist features.
Trims and Performance
The 2023 UX Hybrid comes in two different trim levels, the UX Hybrid and UX Hybrid F Sport Handling, as well as four different styles: 250h, 250h Premium, 250h F Sport Design, and 250h F Sport Handling. Regardless of which trim or style you choose, all models come equipped with a potent 181-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood.
While front-wheel drive is standard, there’s also available all-wheel drive, and the vehicle’s best-in-class 17.1-inch turning radius, available paddle shifters, and up to five available drive modes mean excellent handling and fun driving at every turn. Saving you both time and money with fewer stops at gas stations on road trips, the hybrid powertrain helps the SUV achieve impressive efficiency.
Design and Comfort
With aerodynamic taillamps, a motion-activated rear door, and a bold-looking grille in the front, this crossover offers both style and convenience in its design. Heated and ventilated seats are available inside, as well as a 60/40-split folding seat that’s perfect for times when you need to make more room for cargo.
F Sport Handling models offer bolstered sport seats with a race-inspired Circuit Red NuLuxe and Black theme that can keep you more securely seated when taking sharp turns, and many other interior amenities are available, including a heated steering wheel and tilt-and-slide moonroof.
Advanced Tech Features
Plenty of cutting-edge features are available for the cabin as well, including a 12.3-inch multimedia touchscreen display, which comes standard in the F Sport Handling model and replaces the standard 8-inch one while offering everything from audio and video playback to turn-by-turn navigation assistance.
Instead of taking your eyes off the road to glance down at an instrument panel, you can see important information on the windshield in front of you with the convenient color head-up display, and if you need to charge a smartphone, there’s a wireless charger available as well.
Intelligent Safety Systems
This edition also offers a wide array of standard safety features in every model, such as the pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, which can both warn you and stop the vehicle if necessary whenever you’re approaching pedestrians or other vehicles too quickly.
There’s also lane-tracing assist and lane departure alert, which can detect if you’re leaving your lane unintentionally and can then take corrective action to prevent this. All-speed dynamic radar cruise control also comes standard and can adjust the vehicle’s speed relative to traffic while maintaining a pre-selected speed whenever possible.
