Absolutely love the luxury feel of this little overachiever. Smooth acceleration and very comfy driving. My clubs fit in the back but not recommended if you plan to carry adults in the back seat. Limited in leg room if driver is tall. Otherwise 100% perfect for me!!!

It is a great car to drive, with comfy seats and quiet interior. I love the birch colored seats with black dashboard and console - the lighter interior keeps the cabin cooler in the summers, and the black (I got the washi trim) looks cool. It just looks luxurious. Only minor complaint is that the cabin itself is small, so if you have the build of a football linebacker or heavyweight wrestler, this car will feel snug especially if you have folks sitting in the back seat. It was perfectly fine for me driving a full carload of 5 - my teen boys and their friends. With the safety features (automatic braking, lane departure warning, etc.) I feel incredibly safe in despite it being on the smaller size. A lot of folks complain about the lack of acceleration and power, but honestly, who cares? You get a hybrid to be fuel efficient, not race around like you are too important to spare 5 extra seconds to reach the speed limit. Having said that, I am perfectly content (as a former Los Angeles driver who had a horrendous commute on the 405 and often found myself frequently doing multiple lane changes in quick succession just to get anywhere in a decent amount of time) with the acceleration - the smaller size certainly helps with maneuvering in traffic as well as parking. Given the fuel economy, I also love not wasting my time in line at the pump - talk about a time saver!

I can’t tell you how much I love the way this car drives. Saving on gasoline is a big deal to me right now as well. This car has all the perks.

We wanted a compact luxury hatch with AWD and a hybrid powertrain. This was really the only car that fit all of the parameters. I'll start with the positives: Positives: The materials and interior fit and finish are very nice. I was also sold on the fact that a 6' person like me can sit in the back without having to strain my neck. It has a lot of nice touches like the dual hinged center console and little cubby for change. I wouldn't call it "pretty", but it's definitely sporty looking and design has grown on me a bit. I also really like the fact that, unlike the turbocharged German competitors, the car is perfectly happy with regular 87 octane fuel. But there are a lot of big things that make me say "if only..." The drawbacks: Most frustrating is the laughably small fuel tank. We only use it around town, so it's not a big concern for road trips, but when the fuel light comes on, you only have about 20 miles of range left. Even in a city, this can create some serious range anxiety - which is an odd thing for an ostensibly gas-powered car. It's barely 8 gallons even when totally full, so despite being a hybrid if the weather is even moderately cold, you'll spend a lot of time looking for gas stations. The trunk is also comically small. Fine for small items, but it really makes it hard to use for more than short jaunts if you have a dog, child, or even a full shopping cart at Costco. There's seemingly no way to put the wipers in a "service mode" to make them easy to change or even clean them if they get snowy and icy. So if you don't have a garage, it will be annoying to clean off in the winter. Finally - and this is a big one - are the overall user controls. This car really needs a touchscreen, but instead you're stuck with a mousepad setup that's a poor fit with the act of driving. It makes navigating different functions in Apple CarPlay a lot more difficult than it needs to be. The volume control is in a weird spot, and the HVAC controls are laid out as a single row of non-intuitive rocker switches. If you're a single person living a minimalist lifestyle in southern California (and you can get past the lousy user interface), this might be the perfect car for you. But I just can't bring myself to love it like I thought I could.

This is a great hybrid SUV for first-timers crossing over from a sedan, or for those who don't need a lot of cabin space. It has the luxury of Lexus but also the "truckiness" of a sport utility vehicle. Its center of gravity isn't as high as the other Lexus SUVs, so it's a good vehicle to get acclimated to a higher COG. It has almost all the bells and whistles as the Lexus sedans, too. And after driving it for more than a year, I have to say I absolutely love it! Stylish and functional, excellent gas mileage and low/no maintenance. Again, it's a small SUV, but that's all I need right now.

I traded my 2012 for this little car, because I wanted AWD. I like that it sits a little higher off the ground and has a quieter, more comfortable, ride plus all of the new safety bells and whistles! Although this too is a hybrid, I do miss the Prius gas mileage! This Lexus seldom gets more than 36 mpg. & I wish it had a larger fuel tank! 10.5 gals has only about 350 mile range on a good day & I don't like to get too close to empty, so I fill-up at around 300. I had to have the windshield replaced at about 6K miles, & darned if before 10K miles another rock (on the freeway) didn't hit in about the same place on the passenger side! It hasn't cracked yet, but I do wonder about the windshield design! This car has a small turning diameter and that is probably my favorite thing about it! Besides a larger fuel tank, my wish is for an on demand AWD that works at all speeds instead of just up to 45 mph!

Water/weather between door edge and interior seal

My one complaint is what I suggest is a design flaw. The door and hatch let rain water/road puddle water/car wash water through to the interior seal. It does not get IN to the interior, but these areas need to be wiped down after a rainy day drive etc. It's a nuisance and can get on clothes when getting in and out of car.

2023 UX250h I purchased on 12/2022 is good in City driving, but above 50 mph on the Highway, not too comfortable for your ears after a few minutes, "very disappointed" for LEXUS as a quality automobile company dish out such low quality noisy car.

First of all, Car n Driver review had been "compromised" , this car actually deserved 2.5 to 3 stars. Windows were .2 to .3 cm thinner, bottom of all 4 doors had water stains "inside" after wet road condition, extremely high road/wind noisy on highway, you cannot use speaker phone because of the noisy condition. The rest of the car is average, for the price after tax $50K, I would like my money back, but cannot, not worth buying, this is not a Lexus.
