2020 Lexus UX 300e

Lexus unveiled its first electric car: Lexus 300e UX

Lexus 300e UX, with an electric motor drives the front axle and delivers 150 kW (204 HP) on the road. The Japanese manufacturer has made minor changes to improve the car’s aerodynamics, so UX 300e is 20mm lower than the regular petrol version, and the car is fitted with special, more aerodynamic wheels.

The Crossover bodywork has also been redesigned to reduce air resistance to movement and increase driving autonomy.

Instead of gasoline, a 204-horsepower electric motor is mounted on this car. Electricity is stored on 54.3 kWh lithium-ion batteries, which provide 400km of autonomy, measured against the old cycle, NEDC, while the results of a more realistic WLTP test are yet to be expected. 

With empty batteries, it takes about 50 minutes to fully recharge on a 50 kW fast charger, while the charging process on a 6.6-kilowatt outlet takes about 7 hours. The batteries are located under the rear seats, leaving the luggage compartment unchanged from the regular Lexus UX.

Using a smartphone app, Lexus drivers can read the battery level and view information about the nearest charging stations. Additionally, can be done automatic climate control, heated seats and windows, all of which can be adjusted by the app.

As Lexus has already confirmed, the UX 300e will be available in Europe next year. What the price of the electric car will be, it’s still unclear.

Three months ago, it was said that there would be such a car from this production line, but there was no confirmation, as the company was more concerned with the LC F Coupe.

Although nothing has been confirmed, a week before the Detroit Auto Show starts, Lexus surprised with an unexpected presentation.

Everything is at the stage of the concept, but even after getting the green light for production, there is not expected to be any major changes.

Apart from the snapshots and the interior, there are no details to show what will be under the cap.

These are expected to be taught soon, at the first fair for this year, which will gather many important producers.
