What's New for the 2023 Lexus UX Hybrid?

Lexus will only offer hybrid versions of the UX200 vehicles, eliminating non-hybrid versions from the portfolio. A new hybrid model has front-wheel drive. To enhance the UX's handling and ride quality Lexus claims to have adjusted the chassis and suspension. We won't know for sure until we've driven this newest model. On the F Sport variant, a new F Sport Handling package with adjustable dampers is available. Lexus has installed its more recent Lexus Interface touchscreen entertainment system, which has wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an integrated voice assistant, and over-the-air update capabilities. The system appears best on the larger, optional 12.3-inch screen, but an 8.0-inch display is also available. There is a new location for the infotainment display.

What Are the 2023 Lexus UX Hybrid Trims & Features?

The all-new 2023 Lexus UX Hybrid is available in four trim levels: UX 250h, UX 250h Premium, UX 250h F Sport Design, and UX 250h F Sport Handling. The exterior features a power sunroof, an acoustic windshield, and a rear lip spoiler. It also has a stylish and sporty interior with heated and cooled front seats, wood trim, and a 10.3-inch touchscreen display. You also get the latest safety features, like a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, and lane departure warning.

How Much Horsepower Does the 2023 Lexus UX Hybrid Have?

The Lexus UX has a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT), front- or all-wheel drive, and a 181-hp four-cylinder hybrid powertrain. The UX250h we tested in 2019 performed poorly, taking 8.6 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph. Fortunately, it possessed decent steering feedback and a refined quietness that worked well enough to offset its lack of speed. An F Sport package adds 18-inch wheels with run-flat tires, a stiffer suspension setting, and special interior and exterior accents.

What Safety Features Does the 2023 Lexus UX Hybrid Include?

Through the Lexus Safety System+ 2.5 feature set, driver assistance technology is included as standard equipment on every model. It features lane-keeping assistance, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian recognition, and adaptive cruise control with lane-centering. Essential safety elements include pedestrian identification with emergency braking standards, lane-keeping departure warnings, and adaptive cruise control with lane-centering functionality.
