At Lexus of Glendale, we recognize that modern drivers in Southern California require a vehicle that is as efficient as it is sophisticated. The Lexus UX Hybrid is designed specifically for the urban lifestyle, providing a seamless blend of luxury and sustainability. At Lexus of Glendale, we see firsthand how this compact SUV excels on the crowded streets of Glendale and during the daily commute into Los Angeles. With its bold design and innovative hybrid powertrain, the Lexus UX is the perfect choice for those who want to reduce their carbon footprint without sacrificing the premium experience of a Lexus.
The Lexus UX is specifically engineered for city driving, featuring a compact frame and an incredibly tight turning radius that allows for effortless U-turns and easy maneuvers in narrow alleys. Its elevated seating position provides excellent visibility, which is a major advantage when navigating the busy intersections near the Americana at Brand.
Beyond its physical agility, the Lexus UX features a highly responsive hybrid system that provides instant electric torque, making it quick and nimble in stop-and-go traffic. The regenerative braking system captures energy during frequent city stops, further enhancing efficiency. Drivers in Glendale will appreciate the "EV Mode" which allows for short-distance electric-only driving at low speeds, perfect for creeping through a parking garage or quiet residential neighborhoods.
The 2025 Lexus UX 300h achieves a remarkable EPA-estimated 45 MPG in the city and 41 MPG on the highway for front-wheel-drive models. All-wheel-drive versions are nearly as efficient, delivering approximately 44 MPG city and 40 MPG highway. These figures make the Lexus UX one of the most fuel-efficient luxury crossovers on the market today.
FWD Efficiency: 45 City / 41 Highway / 43 Combined MPG.
AWD Efficiency: 44 City / 40 Highway / 42 Combined MPG.
Total Output: 196 net combined horsepower from the 2.0L hybrid system.
This high level of efficiency means fewer trips to the pump, saving Southern California drivers both time and money. The hybrid powertrain doesn't just save fuel; it also provides a smoother, quieter ride than traditional gasoline engines, as the electric motors handle the initial acceleration and low-speed cruising.
The interior of the Lexus UX is crafted with a driver-centric layout that emphasizes comfort and high-tech convenience, featuring standard 8-way power-adjustable front seats and dual-zone climate control. The cabin uses premium materials, including available NuLuxe-trimmed seating and a dash trim inspired by the texture of traditional Japanese washi paper.
Lexus Interface: A standard 12.3-inch touchscreen display provides intuitive access to navigation and media.
Wireless Integration: Every UX includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility for a cable-free experience.
Safety Suite: Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 comes standard, offering features like Road Sign Assist and Proactive Driving Assist.
Premium Audio: An available 13-speaker Mark Levinson Premium Surround Sound system delivers an immersive, concert-like experience throughout the cabin.
The Lexus UX is available in both front-wheel drive (FWD) and an advanced electronic all-wheel drive (AWD) configuration. The AWD system utilizes an additional electric motor located on the rear axle to provide instant torque to the rear wheels when extra traction is needed on slippery or uneven surfaces.
While FWD is standard and offers the highest possible fuel efficiency, the AWD system is an excellent choice for drivers who occasionally head to the mountains or want extra confidence during Southern California's rainy season. Because the AWD system is electronic, there is no heavy mechanical drive shaft running the length of the car, which helps maintain the vehicle's lightweight agility and impressive MPG.
The Lexus UX comes standard with Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, a suite of advanced driver-assistance technologies that use radar and camera systems to monitor surroundings. Key features include a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, which can detect bicycles and pedestrians in low-light conditions.
Other critical safety components include All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, which maintains a preset distance from the vehicle ahead even in heavy traffic on the 2 Freeway. Lane Tracing Assist and Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist work together to keep the UX centered in its lane, while Road Sign Assist displays important traffic sign information directly on the instrument cluster. Additionally, the available Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert provides peace of mind when backing out of driveways or changing lanes in busy Glendale traffic.
