I have a 19 plate takumi, front wheel drive only, safety everything on it, the f sport in this video does look meaner and sporty looking, but I don’t need 4 wheel drive, and the adjustable suspension, some people have said it’s stiffer then the standard set up, the touch pad is fiddly, but i have set the finger movement to slow which helps, and the shortcut buttons help, the seats and the whole set up in the front make it a nice place for a long drive, the boot is city car sized, but if you don’t have 4 wheel drive, there is a deep storage unit like in the puma under the floor, it’s not a family car, but a great starter car in the Lexus brand, never gone below 48mpg, longer journeys into the 50’s mpg, reliability and lexus service, no one beats them, always top in the car power survey, the most relaxing and easy cars to drive.
I purchased my Lexus over 12 months ago . The kick sensor does not work on the boot lid and I have returned my car to Lexus for repair they say its fine and the Tachnician told me to wear steel toe shoes and it would work. Just returned from a 3500 mile touring holiday in Spain two adults boot full, roof pod fitted Inflatable kayak in it, back seats had two small suit cases on them so we were well loaded and the air con was in use most off the time. Average MPG for the hole journey 49mpg. I have noticed that the benefits off owning a Lexus ux 250h is to keep your speed down to 55 - 60mph then you can look at a 60 MPG return I hope this info is of some use.
I have just bought a Lexus Takumi. I must admit I don’t have a problem with the Infotainment system but that’s probably because I have never had the pleasure of driving or using the BMW and Audi equivalent. But I will say it's a lot better then the Togle type “switch” on my old Lexus is300. I must agree that tyre noise is a bit annoying unless you are on a really smooth piece of road. Boot space leaves a lot to be desired but as I will hardly use it except for shopping I think I can live with it. Great Review.
I'm 24, no kids (and no, not planning yet either!) I'm not bothered about most of the bad points, things like the back seats and the boot space is not really a big thing for me. Would you say this is a good car now the CT is not available? I have a CT now, I've ordered a UX premium sport and hope that most of these bad points are null and void due to only being my age and in my position. Thoughts?
Moved from 2019 CT to '21 UX. I am at the end of the age spectrum at 77. I like these cars, pleasure to drive. Quirky....but so what, more to discover!
@@Marcoshary it's a huge upgrade from the CT, got mine in red with premium sport package (red with black trim) and then the white ash interior. Absolute gorgeous machine, runs like a dream and does relatively similar MPG. And everything I said that was null and void is right, I rarely use the back seats and they are good enough - and the boot space is more than enough for me.
We have a UX250h which is a 20 reg it does not appear to have seat memory and this makes it necessary or adjust rear view mirrors and seating position regularly. We see no buttons for setting this option in the car. Can it be done by the computer.

Agree with poor luggage space and infotainment system. Addressed and compensated by Apple Car Play and Lexus bullet proof reliability
Great video, I have been eager beaver to drive the UX for over a year now!

Nobody outside the UK knows what MPG means dude
I do!
You can change the sensitivity of the track pad
love the UX!
It is a lovely car but as mentioned the boot and infotainment system need improving.

Great Review.
Hi, if you still have the vehicle get rid of your run flat tires and get normal high quality SUV tire and it will be night and day for you!
Great review! I love the tail light
I have the F-Sport and agree about the infotainment system as well as the pathetic boot space. My next car will be either an Audi, Merc or Alfa Tonale
Use voice control and pad will not be a problem

Did you buy it? Are you happy with it and recommend it? Much better than the CT?

Instant like for saying: “ I have no ideas what Lexus philosophy means😝
Does anyone hear the wind feedback when you're on the highway? It sounds like the window is open but it's not.
Hi if your UX is fitted with runflate tyres that will create noise. or if your car has a sliding roof try closing the inner roof section.
Sunroof is open

gave your video a thumbs up too :)
Thank you good Sir.
My next car coming from is300h f sport
Thank you for your comment. I hope you enjoy your IS. Gutted we don't get the latest version here.
Very noisy on the motorway you need ear protection 😅
Can we put child seat and two booster seat at back
Which compact suv I can go for if I want to put child seat and two booster seat
It's sapphire blue colour?
Yes it is.
Self charging
I believe marketing talk so people know its not a plug in
Good vehicle but that boot size is still really really unacceptable
I know it is soo small!
That is one of the main issues with the UX. That and it’s infotainment system need improving.
1st comment..... Though I don't like lexus that much.......
why not?
@@CarsofGlasgow ego issues 😅😅😅
