ive had this 2025 Premium for over a month now and its the best car Ive ever owned. I stalked a 2025 model and even got $1000 off MSRP. Lexus - Japanese car made in japan unbeatable quality. Not a single rattle or creak. doors perfect, gaps perfect. So happy with my purchase
Looking to get one in the next couple of weeks, I've seen a very well-specked used 2023 250h with low mileage and am wondering if it is worth it to pay the extra $10k to get a brand new 300h. Would you say the difference is worth $10k? I understand it's not a fair comparison all I'm trying to get at is, are the changes with the 300h worth it?
bought UX250h this monday (1 y old from lexus dealer) switched from toyota c-hr and i need to admit that quality of UX is really stunning, every ride w this vehicle is pure relax
Picked up a new 2025 UX300h AWD in the redline color. I have owned a few Volvos, BMW’s, Alfa Romeos, Cadillacs, Saabs and some other higher quality autos . I must say this Lexus is by far the most comfortable, insulated, quiet, this is such a pleasure to drive. I am glad to see this is more of a luxury auto and on that comfort level. Like driving on smooth roads even on a bumpy road . The US is still made in the best factory Lexus / Toyota owns. Not a squeak or rattle and everything is so solid. The redline paint is so think and even as well as all the seams line up as you only find on some $100k autos. The dull thump sound you hear when you pull the door shut is something that should be a must have and this UX has it . The most comfortable auto out there. Go test drive one and see the rubber insulation around all the doors and windows. You are like in an insulated room, just fantastic. The new UX300 engine is plenty fast, smooth and we are getting 41 to 44 mpg in all situations. Can’t say a bad thing about this just wish I tried Lexus years ago. I would have had much higher trade in values and kept my cars longer (good for the wallet) . I would see this having another price increase it deserves it . A +++ Lexus!
Finally someone gets what the UX is- quality, comfort, reliability. Bunch of idiots keep taking about power and speed like it’s a race car flagship so annoying.
Cant find anything wrong? Try driving it at night and see those LED headlight cut off at only 80 feet, and the light rides so low to the ground, it disappears in the slightest dip.
Hard door panels and cheap plastics make this a letdown. A bottom end Lexus with a cheap interior. Should sell for under $39K to be competitive. The new Camry hybrid blows it away for less money.
Where you will see more of a difference is in the F Sport handling package. The model you are driving is just the F Sport appearance package…so the base model. The other way to go would be the Luxury package which will have all the bells and whistles minus the F Sport appearance and handling.
We have a 2020 UX200. It has been 100% perfect for 73,000 miles. The mpg's from day #1 are at 31mpg. The handling when you swap out the run flats is simply stunning. We LOVE it.
@@islanddon865 that sounds really good. Did the dealer change tires for you when u first bought the car ? ( or aftermarket later in your ownership ). ??
@ that’s truly great praise and makes one wonder why Lexus doesn’t offer this option at the point of purchase. My own experience with a run flat car was to vow never again. Put it this way… the tire insurance I reluctantly bought actually paid for itself and then some.
@@kenfrankel3498 They did it to make room in the trunk/rear deck. We just bought a spare in a bag and keep it in the back corner. Only my daughter drives it alone 95% of the time. Doesn't need a lot of space.
196 from 181, that's a 15% horsepower bump, and the car still weighs the same. the UX250H usually averaged in the 8.6 to 8.7 range, so with a 196 horsepower, you're probably looking at the mid 7 second range. 7.5 to 7.8 when you start adding people in the car. most people still won't consider that fast, but it is an improvement atleast over last years model. now to be honest, i tested out one last year, and i personally didn't see a problem with it. so honestly it really comes down to what you're going to be doing with the car, while the new updated 2024 UX gets a horsepower bump, im just not sure it's worth going from the UX 250 to the 300H.
You keep comparing this Lexus to the Prius is a major insult to this vehicle. You're telling us what you think of it. Otherwise, you would be comparing it to the BMW or Mercedes.
@@kenfrankel3498I am interested in the sound system as well. I am not looking for all the luxury,just a comfortable fuel efficient vehicle with a awesome sound system.🇨🇦😵💫
@@scottmccullo Gold Pony just did a 17 minute video on a NON F-Sport version of the 2025 UX. He was not that impressed with the acceleration or the 6 speaker sound system. Of course reliability , build quality and fuel economy are mentioned as the high points. My takeaway is that this car is rock solid and practical if not much fun as a drivers car …
It's an MIJ Lexus. It is built better than nearly any vehicle in history. I have problems with it, but attacking the build quality and materials is absurd.

I’m surprised that a ‘25 model came out so early in the year. Sounds exciting.

@@lucasmelodepaula9474 Lexus Safety Sense 3.0 is worth every pennies u spend on it. Buy it and let me know!
That means nothing without knowing what other cars you have owned.

My NX is in the shop and the loaner is a UX and this engine is amazing…the pick up and go was shocking. Dang near drives like a sports car!

Just ordered yesterday with same cristal white color. Greetings from Hungary
That actually looks sweet and not a bad Lexus also pretty good size does they come with memory seating
Memory seating is available in the packages (Luxury;F Sport handling)

@@islanddon865 that sounds really good. Did the dealer change tires for you when u first bought the car ? ( or aftermarket later in your ownership ). ??
@kenfrankel3498 We ran the run flats to 40k. Then put on some Ziex tires. The difference in handling AND comfort is instantly improved and noticable.

"Cooled seats"? Or ventilated seats?
There's a difference
Is it worth upgrading from a ux250h? Do you feel the increase in horsepower?
I drove both back to back. the refinement and extra torgue is VERY noticable.
@@zepharus2yeah could be true but I don’t think its worth the upgrade if you already have the 250h.
@@zepharus2torgue?
196 from 181, that's a 15% horsepower bump, and the car still weighs the same.
the UX250H usually averaged in the 8.6 to 8.7 range,
so with a 196 horsepower, you're probably looking at the mid 7 second range.
7.5 to 7.8 when you start adding people in the car.
most people still won't consider that fast, but it is an improvement atleast
over last years model.
now to be honest, i tested out one last year, and i personally didn't see
a problem with it.
so honestly it really comes down to what you're going to be doing with
the car, while the new updated 2024 UX gets a horsepower bump,
im just not sure it's worth going from the UX 250 to the 300H.
Would be cool if Lexus offered the solar panel roof like the new prius prime since its the same engine.
Does it have the prius engine like the lexus ct did ?
How is the sound system?
your better off getting it without the jbl system and upgrading yourself
Is that made in Japan and how much?
2025 Lexus UX300h Hybrid F-Sport!
I am still waiting for a new hybrid acura 😅
Hmm I’m looking into this car
Why is it 2025 not 2024? I dont get it
The 2025 came out already
This thing would be cool with 240hp
Need a 400hp UXF

Same engine but uprated motors & battery (lighter and more powerful)
Corolla?
No
No, new Camry instead.

Does this car have speakers …?
Yes under the carriage
@@jayczyzyk9707 not understanding why Ben takes time to show us cup holders and brake pedals while ignoring the sound system. What’s up with that ?
6 speakers standard
10 speakers in the packages

@@augustraaymakers2432 same here. Good reviewers play a few seconds of music and offer their opinion. Savage Geese. Car Confections… and others.
Does it have the horrible Toyota UFO sound (AVAS) while in EV mode? Sadly our 2023 UX has it and it just ruins the whole Lexus experience..
Yes it does and it sucks.
@@MrMustangrick We could fix it, ours not anymore! 🤫
significant update for such an OLD model... when is the UX due for a redesign?
LOved you more when u were clean cut Ben... the ebard looks like a birds nest..geta razor pleease

$45k seriously?!
It's a Lexus, not a Corolla.
Overpriced, should be under 40K for the lowest end Lexus model.
Unimpressive power at that price point. Should have gotten the version from the new Prius with more HP.
Um.... thats exactley what this is. Same powertrain
This review is the the larger engine great ride watch review again
@@scottmccullo Um, 196 HP is not impressive in something that claims to not be entry level. The 2024 Prius Prime has 223 HP. I stand by my statement.
