2021 Lexus UX 250H Over 2021 Mercedes GLA? Let me explain! 

When it comes to reliability Lexus is unbeatable compared to Mercedes

Just purchased 2021 Lexus UX H I do love it. My sister has Mercedes GLA not a fan of the style and the price obviously.

I love my Lexus UX 2021. Admittedly it is restricted in the boot (UK), but for a one/person tourer it is hard to beat. It is a beautiful car to drive.

I'm glad they still got a CD Player. We are actually getting one and I have a lot of CD's.

Nothing better than a Lexus ❤️

I got myself the UX in November 2020 and what can I say? I live in southern Spain🇪🇸 and I am in love ❤ Perfect, premium, liable urban car. Out of this world. Some Mercedes crossover look like a normal car with the Mercedes sign on it. They are not premium at all. However Lexus is premium once you sit in it, the feeling of the fabrics and the driving is so smooth and heavenly 🥰 it's literally like floating on a cloud down the city and freeway 💖

I have a 2021 UX250h and its great. 53 MPG with smooth quiet rapid progress. It does have an audio CD player which I will never use. The boot can be made bigger by removing the under tray and the tool tray.

We don’t have to worry about snow in Australia. Your the only reviewer I’ve come across who doesn’t like the rear of the UX. I think it looks amazing.

Got the 2019 version and very happy with the auto. Smooth driving and safety features great and should apply to all cars

I am the owner of 2023 Luxury Edition, I have driven for 1500Km so far. Absolutely love the car! handling , fuel efficiency, interior and safety features. I tried radar cruise, in high way, the experience was amazing and impressed. The perfect car for daily city driving for the two people.

you might be the first car reviewer in the world to not like the back of the UX lol.. every other youtube reviewers around the world seem to think its the best looking part of the car.

I’m still nluv w my 2014 ct200h 😩❤️. I think this is the replacement

The snowproblem isn't really a problem. In Norway we brush of the snow with a small broom before take off. Since you have to clear the glass areas for safety purposes, it's not a big job to brush the rearlight.

Always felt the UX was a compelling choice for those who don’t like these large cumbersome vehicles. I have every reason to believe the redesign will have touch control and even a better sharper look.

I own a Lexus UX F Sport 2021, Having owned 4x ct200h and 2x is300h Cars this is the best all round package, They are great to drive and own, Buy one if you get the chance you will not be dissapointed....mik

This car is smooth and comfortable. Great driving car with awd.

drove it 3 days. Very good suspension, dampening and steering and handling ! Seats absolutely perfect for driving hours as well as inside insulation

Cool video.... Great Lexus UX for Boston, Miami, etc....

I am picking up my new Lexus UX 250h premium sport edition in black. Tomorrow. I think space wise it is smaller in the inside cabin and visabilty behind is limited and boot space is small but completely disagree with him saying the back doesn’t look good. The back of the car looks great!

Nice video Sam! As a crossover, I don't care for the UX at all. But when I think of it as a premium hatchback, I love it!

Lexus should make a UX-F (or UX 350 F-sport) using the RAV4 Prime's powertrain. Come to think of it, the RAV4 Prime's powertrain should've debuted on the Lexus before the Toyota.

Climate controls should be knobs for quick turning vs buttons

Wonderful review!

That is a CD player my friend. Nothing beats CD's acoustic quality...

Rear end imo favourite looking car 😄

It doesn't seem as "SUV" - looking as the GLA... Looks quite low, more like that higher VW Golf model. As for the Mercedes gear shifter: I too used hold back on this system but now I have one in my CLA and it's just fantastic. You don't even have to take your hand of the steering wheel to move it. I personally see no disadvantage whatsoever.

For those of you who purchased, how many times do you fill the tank a month on average/how many miles do you tend to drive a week?

I have just ordered a UX F Sport Takami for my wife who is a big fan, we have had a long list of Lexus and definitely think it should come with the 2.5 engine, the 2.0 engine is slow!!! and with the CVT revs scream when you put your foot down, now where as noticeable with the 2,5, i have gone for the Takami to get a reasonable spec compared to other premium model, but saying that there are a lot of pro's, seats/smooth ride/efficient/quiet and agree with Sam, the front view is the best around but not huge fan from the rear, although it not awful either.

I love the rear part of this car so yes, it is just personal.

We need sport version of Lexus LX 570 comes with 2 row seats to compete with Rang Rover sport.

I have lexus200t loving it next car ux250h

You're the first person I see describing the rear design of this car as ugly. I do understand the weather condition in Canada however, this car is not designed for the Canadian market only, don't forget that my friend.

Update Feb 23, 2023: the base UX 250h starts at 45,807 CAD (compared with 38,000 for the 2021 model..) while the GLA is at 45,000;

I LOVE CD PLAYER

I actually prefer the rear end over the front end of the lexus.

is the f sport suspension a lot different than the other ux versions ? can't find one to test

I have 2019 ux 200, comfort is there, but sooooo slow for the first acceleration. btw not hybrid. so more slow

LEXUS 👌🏻😎 TOP

Just this week I’ve tried to buy one and the deception came when the salesman said the sunroof is not available (in Spain)….. In Mazda, it is the same but very funny because the salesman said it is not available because security reasons !!!!! Ridiculous, because in Italy it is available. Mazda should train sales force not to lie in such crap mode.

If you mean price-performance ratio, yeah...I think UX is better than GLA.

IT HAS A CD PLAYER BECAUSE MANY OLDER PEOPLE BUY LEXUS AND THEY ARNT ALL USING MOBILE PHONES WITH SPOTIFY/BLUETOOTH. PLEASE USE YOUR BRAIN.

I like fuel efficiency better

One will last forever. One will fall apart Also I’d take a rav4 limited over the UX

"It is a Lexus". Nuff said.

I bet lexus still didnt inherite the touch screen entertainment system? I'm tired of those garbage finger touch mouse maneuvers on the arm rest

its not a CD player lol its a wireless charger slot

I will take the UX for sure, low end MBs are just junks, yes, junks. .

Lol whoever wants a Lexus nowadays will still have CDs. They'll make good use of that CD player. Lexus knows their market.

This is just a blinged up 2.0 litre Chr

The Baby brother CHR drives just as well.

the last comment.. "its a Lexus.. " lol.. that isn't a strong argument when the other side is "its a Mercedes"

Gla can never be forgotten, talking about ux based on Toyota Co. lexus but here is not Co. Thing but lexus design can never ever will be better than Mercedes

Lexus for reliability , but the Mercedes interior is way way prettier.

Lots of head and leg room?? LOL As much as I like the UX ( I have both hybrid and petrol ) the interior is tiny! especially the back seats and i'm only 5'3!! How much did Lexus pay you for this? LOL

Anything over a Benz. Benz is for people who want to look cool but don't know ANYTHING about cool cars.

But nothing special..... jjejejejejejeje

So less horse power ...nice big grill to fill with snow ...I agree rear end sucks..the Gla has a foot sweep tail gate open. Gla has more back room. Sorry but that cluster looks nothing like the mbux from mercedes please give me a break. 2x 10.4 screens . The interior looks much more sexier. Map update is via live update,not cd. Sorry the mercedes GLA 200 is way better especially with sport option that this Lexus has. No where near mercedes power. Sorry my 2 cents . No turbo. Also does it have the hey mercedes or hey Lexus......

Don't buy it . It has the same problem of all hybrid cars of lexus. They vibrate badly when speeding between 70km/h and 100km/h especially on a hill road. Nobody talks a this major issue in lexus hybrid cars and lexus refuses to provide any solution. IS models are suffering the most of this problem and all drivers of these cars are shutting up their voices. Probably they are so old to not notice the vibrations.

The GLA is far better 🌚

Life is too short to drive a boring and ugly looking car!!!!!
