Small luxury SUV great for first-timers

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 enjoy driving this little car!

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.

My 4th Lexus

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.
