LexusUX ALL-ELECTRIC

Lexus Chief Executive John Pappas said the UX 300e appeals to younger, affluent customers wanting the flexible urban lifestyle offered by a compact SUV, together with dynamic performance and zero tailpipe emissions.

"The UX 300e is a great urban vehicle for younger buyers wanting a car that is fun to drive and also refined and sophisticated," said Mr Pappas.

"It plays a major role as the entry battery electric vehicle in the Lexus range as we continue our move towards a diverse lineup of luxury vehicles that is either fully or partially electrified.

"The important thing for Lexus is to offer our customers a choice of low and zero tailpipe emission vehicles that suit their mobility needs."

Both UX 300e variants benefit from further technology upgrades introduced on their UX 200 and UX 250h siblings late last year.

This includes the latest Lexus multimedia system on a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen display, wireless Apple CarPlay®⁹ and wired Android Auto™¹⁰, DAB+ digital radio¹¹, satellite navigation¹², wireless phone charger¹³ and 13-speaker Mark Levinson hi-fi audio system.

The UX technology upgrade also includes a three-year complimentary subscription to Lexus Connected Services¹⁴, which introduces a range of customer-focused features enhancing both safety and convenience through the vehicle's inbuilt Data Communication Module (DCM) when connected to a mobile network.

Lexus Connected Services can also provide additional customer benefits when paired to the state-of-the-art Lexus Connected app.

The UX 300e Sports Luxury's additional comfort and refinement includes: leather accented seats, moonroof, head up display, panoramic view monitor, adaptive high beam system, high-grade three projector LED head lamps with dynamic auto levelling, acoustic front side glass and uniquely designed 18-inch wheels.
