The Lexus UX 300e is a fully electric compact luxury crossover from Lexus. It sits in the subcompact SUV segment and shares its body style with the standard UX, offering a small footprint suited for urban driving.
The vehicle uses a lithium-ion battery pack with usable capacity around 54 kWh. Typical real-world range falls near 280 to 320 km depending on driving conditions. AC charging supports home and public wallbox charging, while DC fast charging allows quicker top-ups during longer trips.
Price positioning places the UX 300e in the entry-level luxury EV category. It suits drivers prioritizing comfort, build quality, and city usability over maximum range. Within the brand, buyers may also consider the Lexus RZ and upcoming Lexus EV offerings. Alternatives include the Volvo XC40 Recharge and Hyundai Kona Electric. Compared with the Volvo XC40 Recharge, the UX 300e focuses more on ride comfort than outright performance.
