Completing the sense of tranquillity, acoustic glass* has been used to reduce high-frequency wind noise, allowing driver and passengers to relax in the peaceful UX 300e cabin. “For the New UX 300e SUV, we’ve created an electrified driving experience that is unique to Lexus.” Book a Test Drive Book a Test UX 300e Chief Engineer Takashi Watanabe *Available on selected packs 08 UX 300e UX 300e 09 EXHILARATING PERFORMANCE EXHILARATING PERFORMANCE AN View Offers View ELECTRIFYING EXPERIENCE The all-electric UX delivers an amazing driving feel that is unique to Lexus. “PADDLE SHIFTERS OFFER A CONNECTION WITH THE UX 300e THAT’S BOTH INTIMATE AND PLAYFUL.” I press the Power button.
