THE LEXUS UX 250h MANUAL (YEAR NOT SPECIFIED)

Introduction

The Lexus UX 250h is a luxury compact SUV that combines innovative design, safety, and an ultra-efficient powertrain. It is designed for modern urban motorists who seek a fresh and contemporary take on luxury driving.

Design and Aerodynamics

The UX features a unique design theme that combines strength with refinement. The spindle grille has a mesh pattern with individual elements that gradually change in shape as they radiate out from the central Lexus emblem. The vehicle’s aerodynamic profile, large wheels, and strong front fascia generate an agile stance.

Interior Design

The UX’s cabin is designed to evoke the feel of a dynamic, luxury saloon, with a higher seating position and versatility. The materials and finish are pure Lexus, combining Japanese traditions in craftsmanship and hospitality with innovative production techniques.

The UX delivers a quiet drive, thanks to its high-strength structure and optimal location of sound-absorbing and insulating materials throughout the body. The ‘Seat-in-Control’ concept makes the driver feel more in touch with the road and engaged in the drive.

Luxurious Finishes

The UX’s interior features luxurious finishes, including a leather upholstery finish with stitching inspired by Japanese sashiko technique. The interior colour combinations evoke different moods and accentuate the premium design.

Intuitive Controls and Clear Displays

The instrument panel is designed to make technology intuitive to use, with a seven-inch display that digitally renders realistic, analogue gauges with a three-dimensional effect. The head-up display adds to the high-tech feel, projecting key information in colour onto a virtual screen.

Imaginative Technology

The UX features refined cabin atmosphere with subtle, integrated LED lighting. The air vents have a single-knob control for both airflow direction and volume, and the vents on the UX Takumi are illuminated by a distinctive LED light source.

Versatility through Thoughtful Packaging

The UX package makes urban exploring easier, with a 2,640mm wheelbase, 4,495mm length, and best-in-segment 5.2m kerb-to-kerb turning radius. Several design measures make getting in and out of the car easier, including optimal placing of the hip-point, a cut-off profile for the rocker panel below the doors, and the shape of the seat cushions.
