Launched in 2019, this new subcompact luxury SUV is described as an “urban explorer.” Because it targets younger drivers, styling is fairly different from the brand’s larger SUVs. Naturally, in addition to the base front-wheel-drive model featuring a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, the UX lineup also includes a hybrid variant with all-wheel drive. The latter is not only more powerful, but also much more fuel-efficient in city driving. Both offer F SPORT packages.
