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. Based on a new 2.0-liter petrol engine with 145 horsepower and 180 Nm, coupled with an 80 kW and 202 Nm electric engine, this new architecture promises to bring more sportiness while maintaining the efficiency of the system.
