The head-turning UX arrives to the New York International Auto Show for its North American introduction weeks after its world debut at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show. It joins Lexus' full lineup of luxury and performance vehicles.
The UX's bold and stylish design blends expressive bodywork with a compact size, and its crossover credentials are signaled by its muscular haunches and high beltline. The UX is the first Lexus to use the brand's GA-C (Global Architecture - Compact) platform. The super-rigid structure and low center of gravity help the UX deliver exemplary handling agility and ride comfort, along with a distinctive driving personality.
The 2019 Lexus UX will be available in two versions. The UX200 introduces a new 2.0-litre, four-cylinder engine coupled with a new Direct-Shift Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). The UX250h pairs the same 2.0-litre gas engine with a new fourth generation hybrid drive system. New technology that networks with navigation allows the UX250h to proactively optimise hybrid operation by learning and adapting to the driver's routes and driving habits.
