So I am looking forward for this double hybrid per every model strategy
The only model have it now is the GS with the 300h & 450h

well this is for Toyota EU, but I guess UX will show what will Auris and C-HR get as upgraded powertrain...

I find it hilarious that you think just because you don't like it, people here can "pressure Lexus" to change it. It looks very, VERY similar to the concept. It looks really good in the teaser - speaking of the teaser, it's blacked-out so you can't tell what it is, so why judge it before it is revealed? Lexus always does an amazing job at matching the concept, so I think it'll look really good. If you don't like it, then don't buy one when it comes out. Simple as that.
Nothing wrong with your reply except the "if you don't like, don't buy" could be left out. What if I like nothing but need to have? Start my own company?

Is there any chance that Lexus will ever have an F SUV? I know hybrid technology is really cool and all that but some of us want faster cars! Just hopeful that one day I can get an F SUV!

Most likely it would be from the LF-1 limitless concept. Lexus needs to expand the F division.

IS F (please bring back with a vengeance)
RC F
LC F (hopefully this come)
GS F
LF-1 F (not sure what designation it would ultimately have)
LFA (bring us 2LFA)

I was hoping that the UX project would be an opportunity for Lexus for some major strategy change. Seeing the "250h" was like living 2011 all over again...I love the design philosophy and quality of the brand and i was one of the first -proud- owners of the Lexus CT200h back in 2011 and i was looking forward to replace it with the first EV Lexus car (at least as an option) after 8 years! Well, sadly, it seems that i should look for other brands now. Maybe an electric Volvo XC40 or sth similar.


Sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language but i am a fan of LexusEnthusiast for almost a decade now ( this is my first post ).

Lexus EV's won't be here for awhile. I love your avatar name ct200e. Hopefully one day we'll get a CT 200e.

but electric Volvo XC40 does not exist... even hybrid XC40 does not really exist but their diesel does. All they sell is mostly diesel and petrols around the world, and PR the heck out of their plugin hybrid that they sell (in numbers) only in few countries where there are huge incentives to do so.

Your best bet right now would be Jaguar I-pace... seems like really nice EV.

Yeah, buying any high-end EV in the next two or three years seems a risky decision because of how disruptive solid state batteries are. The first Lexus EV could completely trash the value of existing EVs using old Li-ion technology.

true too.

But with all the PRs, you would think there are tens of EV SUVs around, and with exception of China, there really are not.

UX250h will fit nicely into Europe, and same powertrain will fit nicely in various TMC products worldwide. They should be able to increase their hybrid sales with it to a lot more than current 1.5M/year... I just feel it is silly that Lexus/Toyota are not somehow not at forefront of tech because others do a lot of PR and then sell 99% diesel/petrol.

Thank you guys for all your answers!

So should I wait 2-3 more years for our loving brand makes some ground-brake innovation in EV technology (solid state batteries)?

Because, at the present, Lexus seems like a sleeping giant to me that insists to mediocre innovations as their business model... It's really disappointing to see a CT200h 2018 model using a 2009 technology ( Gen 3 PRIUS ) !! Even the new BMW 1-series will be offered with a plug-in version! (and i hate this brand for several reasons...)
