Lexus LBX 2024 Review: Is This The Game Changer For Compact SUVs?
0:00 - Intro
This is the Lexus LBX, and it's like Lexus put their other cars on a hot wash and shrunk them. Don't let its size fool you, though. It's got more goodies packed in it than your grandma's Christmas stocking.
0:16 - Exterior Design
First, let’s start with the exterior design. Now, let's start with that face of the LBX. Look at that huge spindle grille!
Let's scoot over to the sides now. Here we have some bold angular creases giving the LBX a sporty feel.
Also, take a look at those wheels. Up front, we have some fancy 17-inch rims, but wait! Lexus, not wanting the back to feel left out, decided to amp it up with 18-inch rims for the rear.
And the tailgate, oh boy, the tailgate. It’s got this cool light bar that spans the entire rear width, adding a slick futuristic touch.
You can make your LBX as unique as your thumbprint.
Now, there's one more unique design feature, and that’s the flat bonnet.
2:24 - Interior Design
Now, let’s talk about the interior. The first thing you notice when you step inside is the ambiance. The interior is driver-focused, akin to a cockpit. Lexus has apparently decided to take the whole "transport of the future" thing quite seriously, presenting us with a sleek and impressive 12.3-inch digital instrument panel.
Now let's talk about the seating arrangement. These seats are designed with your back in mind.
Right in the heart of this modern marvel of motoring is a touchscreen that supports voice commands, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. They've even thrown in a digital key that lets you unlock and start the car using your smartphone.
The materials used throughout the LBX are genuinely premium. The high quality and attention to detail could make a Swiss watchmaker green with envy. Lexus clearly set out to impress, and I can say without hesitation that they've nailed it.
The overall comfort is kind of like lounging on a cloud while angels fan you with palm fronds.
And let's not forget about the climate control system, which, let me tell you, is so sophisticated.
4:45 - Storage
Now, let’s talk about the trunk. Despite being "not as spacious as some competitors," the LBX's trunk offers a decent cargo space with 332 liters behind the rear seats. It's not going to swallow a set of golf clubs whole, but you can fit a fair number of shopping bags.
One cool aspect of the LBX's trunk is its ability to transform. Those back seats fold down for when you need to cram something bigger in there.
6:52 - Engine and Performance
Now, let’s talk about the engine and performance specs.
So, first off, let's talk about the heart of this beast, the engine. The LBX comes with a feisty little 1.5-liter three-cylinder petrol engine. You'll be reaching 100 kilometers per hour (that's about 60 miles per hour for you folks on the other side of the pond) in a respectable 9.8 seconds.
Now, how about the fuel efficiency? It's so frugal that it averages an impressive 4.6 liters per 100 kilometers or around 51 miles per gallon for you imperial folks.
Next on the list, let's talk about handling. The steering is sharp and precise. And the suspension? It absorbs bumps like a professional boxer absorbs punches - with grace, poise, and a certain degree of masochism.
The ride quality, folks, is just like floating on a cloud. A very luxurious, well-engineered cloud that also happens to have leather seats and a killer sound system. You can take this car on the roughest of roads and it'll still give you the comfort of a living room recliner.
9:11 - Safety
Now, let’s talk about the safety features. First off, we got the basics. Airbags? Of course, the LBX has 'em - and not just two, but multiple ones positioned all around the car. And seatbelts? It's got those too, of course, with pre-tensioners that reel you in if things get rough, keeping you firmly in your seat like a roller coaster ride.
But that's not all. The LBX is equipped with Lexus' Safety System+. This system comes with an array of features designed to prevent accidents from happening in the first place. You've got your lane departure alert with steering assist, that gently nudges you back into your lane if you start drifting off like a daydreaming student in a history lecture. There's the pre-collision system with pedestrian detection that helps you brake in time to avoid a collision.
Also part of this suite is adaptive cruise control that adjusts your speed to maintain a safe distance from the car in front. And let's not forget automatic high beams that toggle your high beams off when another vehicle is approaching.
The LBX has got you covered with a rear cross-traffic alert and a backup camera that's got your back, literally.
