    lexus ux in your video is not top specs, you can get 360 view, powered tail gate, larger infotainment screen, mark levinson stero, sun roof, heads up display, AWD, etc. So its not really a fair comparison. And the biggest difference, lexus is an hybrid which do cost more as it comes with a battery.

    the Lexus UX250H is a hatchback that seems a bit raised up, to replace the old Lexus CT200h. It seems to have the same interior space and boot volume as it's older sibling. The Lexus UX250h is not a mild hybrid, but a hybrid or as they like to call it a "full hybrid"

      If the UX is a replacement for the CT then I can understand the idea. However the execution of that concept definitely FAILED in my eyes. This thing is atrocious and honestly doesn’t do the whole “replacing the CT” much justice, the CT actually looked good and was clearly understood as a premium Prius. The UX looks like a prank Toyota is playing on folks that ever buy this thing.

    Before I had my X3M I had an X3 M40i and before I had that, I had a 2018 X1. The X1 is a great little premium compact crossover. Reliable, more power, more cargo space and better fuel economy than the Q3 and GLA, which is why I chose it over it's competition in the first place. It's better looking too. I see that the new X1's interior is also MILES ahead of the 2018 interior. Also, free BMW Ultimate Care, FTW!

      @@mspeed2441 I think either car is fine as a daily. Yes, I believe the X3 is due for a next-gen update for either 2024 or 2025. Personally, I don't think I like where BMW is headed, design-wise. I also don't like the new full-screen gauge cluster/infotainment, no gear selector knob setup. I assume that's the iDrive8 setup. The 2023 M3 also has this(the M cars still have a gear selector though). The X line of suv's all seem to get the new layouts a year after the sedans. So this is why I decided to order my X3M for 2023 instead of waiting. Nice thing about leases is that your not committed to the car. My wife and I are serial-leasers with our leases staggered by a year-and-a-half, so every 18 months or so, we get a new 2nd car and have the opportunity for direct comparisons. We get to see what we like and don't like. We've had a X1, Macan S, 718 Cayman S, SQ5 and currently the GLC43 and M40i(soon to be X3M).
      Just my opinion, but I don't think there's any point in "chasing the new" and FOMO for the new stuff in the next gen car. There's always going to be new stuff. If that matters to you then your only option is to lease forever. My wife's 22 GLC43, she decided to purchase because she felt it's the best car so far. I plan to purchase my X3M also, as I may not like the refresh.

But never a tow, flashing check engine, dead battery, anything. But they've all been new. Maybe that's not fair, but our new Jeep GCL and my sisters' new Palisade and Sorrento go to the shop regularly.
      Older BMWs? When I had those in college, the previous owners and I, alike, would drive the piss out of them...wear and tear no Toyota or low hp ca would ever incur. So they had wear issues. Cooling, brakes, shafts, bushing, carrier bearing. But, could only afford 10,000 mile cars back then. More recently, though, I drove the crap out of my new M3s, M2s, X3MC, and they never skipped a beat. But they're new.

    Hi Tyler! Yeap BMW sponsored this Video!! But after 10years the UX will have 4 or 5 times the value of the BMW, will still be like new and run the same. BMW will be already recycled after 6 or 7 owners before that time. 😂😂

    X1 is basicly trash, has no near UX quality and looks dull

    The interior of the Lexus looks like old BMW.

      Wait what? Did you know the UX is NOT electric, it is a hybrid. Did you also know the X1 comes in fully electric as well.
      Also Gasoline cars are far better commuter cars than Electric cars. For strolling the city EVs are great, but for actual driving, not so much.

    BMW has a personality, most of the cars not, even Lexus. In terms of exterior look, BMW looks much better to me, but in a way of reliability and a second hand market Lexus wins in general.

    The x1 comes out on top because it’s actually competitive unlike the UX which SUX. Like it’s not good at all
    The best thing about the x1 or any competitive crossover is that they aren’t an uncompetitive lexus

      Was looking at X1. Had the UX when it came out and only kept it 4 months. Awful
      Hope X1 isn’t a repeat of that.
      Savagegeese bashed it.
      Maybe X3 M40i is the way to go
