Al Futtaim Lexus introduced the new 2019 Lexus UX200 to its line-up in the UAE in December last year. We are lucky to get a chance to review this urban masterpiece. Check the video above to know everything about this compact crossover.

The 2019 Lexus UX200 is powered by a highly efficient 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder engine that pumps out 169 horsepower and 205 Newton meter torque. The engine is assisted by a freshly created 10-speed Direct-Shift Continuously Variable Transmission (D-CVT).

The drivetrain includes a five-mode Drive Select Controller and unique aero ventilation, which permits reduced air turbulence over the surface of the wheel. Lexus has upgraded the signature spindle grille to exude a 3-D effect. At the front, you can see LED running day-time lights in addition to Lexus’s typical L-shaped lights. The rear lights span the complete width of the crossover containing 120 LED lights.
