I wouldn't be shopping for a vehicle in this segment anyway, but overall...

Our RAV4H already does around 33-35 MPG combined hey but at least the AWD system on the UX250h is new and more potent.
Rav4 Hybrid does 32 MPG combined. NX300h is 31 MPG ((heavier?) while UX is 38 MPG (EPA). Rav4 is already really good with MPG, and this is even better. So whatever you are getting in Rav4H, you will likely get at least 5-7 MPG better in UX.

@mikeavelli Likely a bit lighter (and smaller wheels) C-HR does 29 MPG with older 2.0l and CVT, while this UX 2.0l CVT is 33 MPG... A very nice number, especially with almost 22hp more.

Competition, while more powerful, does 25-27 MPG.... so 30%-50% better depending on engine, not a small feat vs latest and greatest from competition.

I just noticed those black plastic over the fenders yesterday.

I know they can protect the fender wells as well as the surrounding area but in terms of aesthetics, did Lexus try to make it look more muscular? I am not liking the design as it detracts from the fluidity.

#Cheap plastic fender bolt-on off-road style, for luxury German cars, another stupid trend they started and all are following. Land Cruiser, a true off-road car, never had that. I hate that plastic fender, it is really cheap, especially on expensive cars.

That side profile IS a Hatchback. The UX IS THE successor to the CT. They just have to call it a crossover because that word alone prints money.

I had the same thought when I saw the lowered UX - it's absolutely the CT's successor. If you want a new CT, buy a UX and a set of lowering springs :)

I thought I was the only one that did mind about those plastic fender bolt-on off-road style. Good to know you share the same sentiment. It's so fugly, at least make it possible to remove those pieces if the owner chooses so.

It's a bad execution, the UX concept looked a lot better

Lexus marketing keeps talking about the UX as a crossover, but that ride height is all hatchback. You wouldn’t need to lower it much considering it’s already at the level of your average sedan. My brain hurts whenever they talk about how it gives you the commanding view of a crossover with the feel of hatchback. Aren’t those at odds with each other? :)
