Lexus UX 300h: power updates and low consumption – News

La Lexus UX urban The crossover, one of the main brands in Europe, will receive major powertrain upgrades for the new year of 2024.

New Lexus UX 300h now producing a total output of over 146 kW (199 CV), with increasing dell’8% compared to 135 kW (184 CV) of the UX 250h. This benefit is enabled by the system hybrid Of fifth generation which replaces the previous 180-cell, 216-volt nickel-metal hydride battery and Lithium battery of 60 cells and 222 volts more efficient. Accordingly, speed up from 0 to 100 km/h is reduced in the front-wheel drive model and 8.5 to 8.1 seconds and in the traction model whole wheat and 8.7 to 7.9 seconds. Also of consumption of oil improved, due to more strength training and weight loss, a 5.0 – 5.2 l/100km in the WLTP cycle together with the model of the front wheel drive ea 5.3 – 5.7 l / 100km for the all-wheel drive model.

In the biggest change, the UX 250h hybrid is replaced by the new UX 300h. Like the UX 250h, the UX 300h is powered by a four cylinders in line and 2.0 liters together with two electric motorsbut the rear electric motor of the new e-Four all-wheel drive system is 5.6 times stronger than its predecessor. Instead of a 5.3 kW induction motor (7 CV) of the UX 250h, there is now a 30 kW permanent magnet motor (41 CV)

These improvements were achieved by improving the control of supply axle weight dynamics of the e-Four all-wheel drive system, which constantly monitors the driving environment to optimize front and rear torque distribution. The driving dynamics also benefit from more stiffness of the body, achieved by introducing the assistance of radiator and strengthen the trunk door.
