Lexus unveils a first image and a video of the final version of the UX, its new compact crossover. Inspired by the UX concept presented in 2016 at the Paris Motor Show, the Lexus UX marks the arrival of the Japanese brand in the compact crossover segment.

Taking the same TNGA platform as the Toyota C-HR, the future Lexus UX hybrid will use a new hybrid system that should also equip the third generation of Auris.
