I bought my UX used from Lexus of Omaha. Because the UX isn’t a huge seller you can get a good price on a used one. The reason it isn’t a huge seller is because it addresses a niche market. This is a car for empty-nesters or a young couple with small children. If people buy it for what it is, it’s a great choice. It does not have a huge hatch which should be obvious by looking at it. It does not have a huge backseat, which is obvious. I get tired of people complaining that the hatch is too small. The backseat is too cramped. Then don’t buy it. Things that are less obvious, like the run flat tires, I can understand complaining about. They are noisy and terrible in snow. I replaced mine with a set of Michelin’s, which solved both problems. If, in the extremely unlikely event I get a flat, I bought a can of fix-a-flat for around $10 (which I know ruins the tire if you have to use it, but if your run flat has a puncture, that tire is also ruined so it’s a wash). And for a slow leak, I bought a $35 12v DC tire compressor that runs off the car battery. What’s great about the UX is all the little touches Lexus added that I didn’t even realize were there when I bought the car. At night, when I approach the car, the door handles light up. The power window switches and the door locks are lit at night. The hidden compartments in the hatch. The change tray in the center console. Lots of little touches that make this car a joy to own.

efficient and practical

This vehicle is great because it's efficient and can fit into pretty much any parking spots as well as make U turns without having to do a 3 point turn. the only thing is it's a bit shorter than typical cars so the backseat is crammed but hey that's a bonus in not being the DD at times.

Perfect smaller luxury vehicle

This car comes with all the bells and whistles Lexus is known for. The interior is well designed and very comfortable. Dash function and technology is fairly easy to understand and the hybrid mileage is excellent in town and on the high way which I was surprised at. For my first Lexus and coming from driving VW only for many years, I am pleasantly surprised. Love this smaller crossover of car and SUV!

Not very practical

Very little space inside. Bumpy, noisy. Mpg and acceleration good enough. Most likely reliable.

noisy engine, tiny trunk, infotainment terrible

The car has comfortable seats and it drives well, even in the snow. Has lots of safety features. Power adequate but noisy when the engine kicks in. Visibility very poor. The trunk is a joke. There is no spare tire, so you must buy run-flat tires. Maintenance is expensive - $1,000 - $1,500 service costs for a 2021 car with less than 10,000kms. Canadian customers note: Unlike other car manufacturers, Toyota/Lexus do not provide confirmation letters regarding safety and anti-theft for the USA. So if you buy your Lexus in Canada and need to register it for study or work leave in the USA, you may face a ton of hurdles, expenses and delays.

Brake shudder on stopping and moving off.Lexus aware of inherent fault. Dealer states I need to learn to drive a hybrid.For a car of this price you think the car could adapt to my driving.
