Lexus UX
As the spiritual heir to the late CT 200h, the Lexus UX is a small crossover designed to attract younger customers. It’s actually closer to a hatchback than a real SUV. The base front-wheel drive model uses a four-cylinder engine that delivers 168 horsepower, while the all-wheel drive hybrid variant generates 181 horsepower. Despite its diminutive size, the UX boasts the same level of refinement and build quality as other Lexus models.
