Lexus is increasing customer choice with a refreshed and extended range of its battery electric UX 300e luxury compact SUV.
The new-look line-up offers additional grades and adjusted equipment specifications, together with styling changes for the cabin.
The renamed entry point to the UX 300e is Urban grade. Key standard features include 17-inch alloy wheels, power adjustable front seats, a heated steering wheel, wireless smartphone integration (wireless Apple CarPlay and wired Android Auto), reversing camera and the Lexus Link Connect multimedia system with cloud-based navigation and eight-inch touchscreen. A seven-inch digital diver’s instrument display is new to the UX 300e. The latest generation Lexus Safety System+ active safety and driver assistance systems are also included in the package.
The new Premium grade further provides rear privacy glass, illuminated door handles with puddle lights, front and rear parking sensors, a driver monitor, Smart Entry, power back door, LED front fog lights and roof rails.
The Premium Plus UX 300e benefits from 18-inch alloys, aluminium scuff plates, an auto-tilt function for the door mirrors when reversing, a wireless smartphone charger, Tahara synthetic leather upholstery, heated front and outer rear seats and front seat ventilation. Additional safety features include Safe Exit Assist, Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert with auto-braking. The rear hazard lights have an auto-flashing function if the UX detects the risk of an impact from an approaching vehicle.
Premium Plus Tech is another new grade, which, as its name implies, focuses on additional technology features. These include the Lexus Link Pro multimedia system with embedded navigation (in addition to the cloud-accessed navigation) and a 12.3-inch display, 13-speaker Mark Levinson Surround Sound audio system and a 12.3-inch driver’s digital instrument display.
At the top of the range the Takumi version maximises the specification with smooth leather upholstery, a 360-degree Panoramic View Monitor, hands-free power back door, head-up display, sunroof and three-eye LED headlights with Adaptive High-beam System.
In addition to the new digital instrument displays, the interior surfaces have been gently reshaped and given a higher quality feel, with a new gun metallic paint finish. The supple new Tahara synthetic leather upholstery is available in Black, Hazel and White Ash colour ways, while Ammonite Sand is a new option for the Takumi model’s smooth leather. For the exterior the paint choices now include a Sonic Copper special metallic option.
