Lexus uploaded the updated UX to its configurator, the more powerful compact hybrid crossover renamed UX 300h from UX 250h. The larger number brings larger output from Toyota’s fifth-generati on hybrid
The additional potency results in higher MSRPs compared to the 2024 UX 250h, figures rising anywhere from $800 to $2,290. The prices, including the $1,150 destination charge, and their differences from 2023, are:
- Base: $37,490 ($800)
- Premium: $40,690 ($1,540)
- F Sport Design: $41,440 ($2,290)
- F Sport Handling: $45,955 ($1,835)
These all buy front-wheel-drive trims. Adding another motor to the rear axle for all-wheel-drive costs $1,570.
Copper Crest, an eye-catching color first made available on the RX crossover for the 2023 model year, joins the palette for the base and Premium trims; it can only be had on the F Sport models in a two-tone scheme with black as the secondary color. Inside, the changes include a smaller shifter made possible by shift-by-wire technology, redesigned buttons on the door panels, and additional chrome-finished trim. The base UX ships with a 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster, the Premium and F Sport models receive a new-for-2025 12.3-inch unit. The base, Premium, and F Sport Design come standard with an eight-inch infotainment screen. Premium and F Sport Design can be optioned up to a 12.3-inch touchscreen for $1,405, the F Sport Handling comes with the larger display.
Lexus pegs the 2025 UX 300h’s 0-to-60-mph time at 7.9 seconds for the front-wheel-drive version, 8.0 seconds for the all-wheel-drive model, and improvement of about a half-second for each. The automaker estimates fuel economy
