2019 Lexus UX Introducing: Lexus Luxury Crossover Experience https://goo.gl/f5yh52

The 2019 Lexus UX gives its maker a kicky new entry point for crossover shoppers.
The 2019 Lexus UX is the automaker's first foray into the smallest niche of crossover SUVs, and it's a bit tardy. Rivals from the BMW X1 to the Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class have been around for years, and the Volvo XC40 presents a formidable new challenge.

With the 2019 UX, Lexus has made it worth the wait for anyone with more monthly income than garage space. The UX has a more pleasant ride and more rear-seat space than all its named rivals, though value’s relatively low on its priority list.
The 2019 UX sports dramatic styling that still forces bystanders to choose sides, though the same themes have been put to work on other Lexus vehicles for a few years. The big spindle grille, the dewlaps at the front end, the finned taillights all cut a distinctive path through the air, a path we think will be compelling for some time. The cabin’s offset dash and color choices step smartly into a fashion-forward arena, but it’s a bit cluttered.

Lexus sells a 168-horsepower UX200 with front-wheel drive, and a 176-hp UX250h hybrid with all-wheel drive that uses an electric motor to provide through-the-road four-wheel traction. Fuel economy’s the focus, not performance, but the UX has a little more than adequate acceleration. Ride is its best virtue, even though American-market machines don’t get the adaptive suspension sold elsewhere.
The $33,025 2019 Lexus UX200 goes on sale in December 2018, with the $35,025 UX250h on sale a month later. Lexus says it will offer the car through a subscription model, but no details have been confirmed.
