This is a Motormouth couple car review of the 2021 Lexus UX250h hybrid small premium SUV. The UX 250h has a 2L 4-cylinder engine paired with the Lexus Hybrid Drive and an ECVT, it has 181 horsepower and standard AWD. It gets 445 miles to every fill. It comes standard with LED headlights, 18” wheels, a power moonroof and power adjustable heated exterior mirrors. Our test model has the Black line special edition package available in Canada for $1,100 CAD. It comes with black metallic 18” wheels, black mirror caps, LED automatic high beam headlights and black painted roof rails. In the US, there are 3 trims but you can add packages and a la carte items to those trims. In Canada, there is one trim with 4 packages. The Black Line Special Edition, F Sport Series 1, $2,000 CAD, the Luxury package, $5,300 CAD and the F Sport 2 for $8,800. The Luxury and F Sport 2 packages come standard with a power lift-gate with kick sensor. This Hybrid gets great fuel economy, 5.7L/100km, 41 MPG city and 6.2L/100km, 38 MPG highway. The Lexus UX 250h is comfortable, fuel efficient and competitively priced.Typically, we get the top trim to drive but this UX 250h is missing the 10.3” display screen you get in the Luxury package for $5,300 CAD or the F Sport Series 2 package for $8,800. We have the standard 7” display screen, which is controlled with the trackpad at the centre console. Our test model comes with the Black Line Special Edition package for $1,100 CAD, some interior features include, blue accents and blue stitching throughout the cabin. The UX hybrid comes with an impressive amount of standard features like Apple Carplay and Android Auto, power windows with auto up/down, a heated leather wrapped steering wheel, Nuluxe heated and ventilated front seats, 8-way power adjustable driver and passenger seats plus a moonroof.The Luxury package offers some features you may be looking for like driver seat memory, a wireless charger, head-up display, memory mirrors, a power rear door with kick sensor, and a 10.3” display screen. It’s priced at $45,550 CAD with this package. JD Power gives the Lexus UX Hybrid an overall score of 77/100 and a quality and reliability score of 75/100. The Lexus Canada online calculator over 48 months shows the Lexus UX 250h will retain 49% of its value over 4 years.

I love how your guys' very differing opinions highlight opposite--but positive--alternative views on the same car features 👏🏽
Keep up the great work!

As a former Lexus owner - I love when you and Zack review Lexus vehicle. It actually great to watch the review of this UX cause my mother might buy a Lexus UX or NX after her lease on the Mercedes Benz ends.

This is built in Japan in one of the best auto shops of all time. This car is built in the same plant with the same standards as 100k plus cars. Great buy if you ask me

We have a UX200. It fits our needs perfectly.

My wife owns the UX 250h AWDe “luxury package” she loves it, we’re empty nesters. Here are a few facts about this vehicle.

-the first gear on the CVT it’s an actual mechanical gear.
- it is not an SUV, you can call it anything you want but this vehicle is a hatchback.

- even tho this car is a hybrid it’s not a slow car. It can stay quite close behind a “fast”vehicle.

-you can fold down the rear seats for extra cargo space and leave it that way since only 2 people are going to be riding in the car most of the time if not all of the time.
-the rear electric motor helps to accelerate the vehicle from stand point.
-it’s loaded with enough technology to keep you confused that many people are never going to use to it’s fullest. My wife being one of them.

I got one after seeing this review. Thanks for your thorough and honest look at the UX. Love the trackpad and love driving a Lexus for the reliability.

Finally, the best manufacturer being showcased.

I would disagree with their description of the cargo area. I went from an RX to a UX Hybrid, and even though the initial presentation of the cargo area seems tiny, there's a multi-level storage system underneath, along with intelligently laid out cubbies on either side. Plus, this is the only Lexus where the seats lay perfectly flat, and it's extremely easy to plop them down - even from the rear. I have been extremely pleased with the usability of the space.

bought a UX because of you guys, and I'm so happy!!!

Hello you two ! after checking your test drive on the RAV 4 and UX, i went to do a road test on both, and i just ordered a UX 2022, coming oct 25 they say, i am looking for fuel ecomy, reliability and a feel of luxury that Lexus is able to deliver with the UX at a reasonable price
i will get the 2022 premium for $43310 . But i will keep watching your good work on Youtube, your opinion is an influence on my car choices, keep it up ! great reviews, Andre from Quebec

When ever buying/leasing a car, always find out the cost of maintenance, insurance, and fueling. There are comments on here about the Tucson but I am betting with the maintenance and insurance costs, you may do better with the UX, with resale value, and how well it holds up.

[johnlee]

Love the transparency and honesty in these videos!

That SUV is small, but I like You and Zack and how fun it is to watch your reviews! Have a great day you guys!!

[UnclePG]

that has to be the best review I have ever watched ...all bases covered plus more!!...you just got another subscriber...thanks

[bruce]

I have watched other reviews of this suv, and all have said that it has a small trunk, but you have to realize that it is a small suv. If it was a large or mid size suv and it had a trunk space like the UX then you can say it is small. just my opinion, with a small suv you will get everything a bit smaller.

[markeister]

Love you reviews team! What a great “real world” review you produce! Thank you!!!

[nicholasbabeaux]

You guys are awesome seriously you deserve more subscribers, but I've been watching the statistics and you guys are climbing up there quick, love watching you guys always thanks

[miguelprera]

Was going to buy one, but there are no hitch available to put a bike carrier. Bought a Mazda CX30 which was cheaper and really well and luxurious equipped!

[powerguymark]

Hate to sound like such a Venza fanboy, but wouldn't a base model Venza be a better choice than this?

[priddle]

"Just listen to Zach"...sage advice Sir, sage advice. lol...great job as usual by you both!
