Whilst any Lexus would be a welcome addition, it’s a shame if all we get is the UX as it’s too small to be practical for many Motability customers and has had some pretty bad reviews (perhaps why they want to offload some on Motability?). This is the verdict summing up the full review conducted by What Car? magazine who only awarded it 2 stars, which is pretty unusual for them;
“The hybrid-powered Lexus UX could be an interesting alternative to established premium family SUVs, with distinctive looks and a very efficient hybrid system. However, it’s only the promise of good fuel economy, cheap company car tax, and Lexus’s excellent reliability that appeal. The driving experience is so-so, the infotainment system is poor, while practicality is shocking for a family SUV when it comes to rear-seat and boot space. As a result it’s impossible to recommend over a petrol or diesel powered Volvo XC40 or Range Rover Evoque, and if you want a hybrid SUV you’d be better off with a larger Toyota RAV4 for the same money”.
