The new Lexus UX 300e Highlights

The all-electric Lexus UX 300e embodies the vision of "Lexus Electrified." Even with the new powertrain, the model remains a true Lexus - without compromise. The brand's first electric vehicle combines exceptional craftsmanship with quality, comfort and quietness, as evidenced not only by the hand-shaped "drive-by-wire" selector lever. To ensure the quietest possible ride, Lexus analyzed the noise generated by electric vehicles and responded: special tires and wheel arch linings reduce the noise emitted by stones, grit and water lying on the road. Driving pleasure was also at the top of chief engineer Takashi Watanabe's specifications. The low center of gravity contributes in particular to the dynamic and refined driving experience: In addition to the GA-C platform and its advantages, the Lexus UX 300e benefits from the high-voltage battery located under the vehicle body and the electric motor placed low in the engine compartment. Suspension and steering, as well as parts of the Lexus Driving Dynamics Control system first introduced in the LF-30 Electrified Concept, further maximize driving pleasure.

The Volvo V90 Cross Country is “all-wheel-drive car of the year 2021”: The large all-road station wagon wins the import ranking in the “all-wheel-drive crossover” category, thereby defending its title. After 2020 and 2017, it is already the third success for the flagship in the prestigious readers' choice of the specialist magazine “Auto Bild Allrad”, which has now been taking place for 20 years. In the vote for “All-wheel-drive car of the year”, the readers of Europe's largest all-wheel-drive magazine choose their favorites with 4x4 technology every year. They determine the overall winner and the import winner in a total of ten categories. Two decades after the first readers' choice, this time there were 237 all-wheel-drive vehicles available on the German market to choose from. As in the previous year, the Volvo V90 Cross Country prevailed in the import ranking in the “all-wheel-drive crossover” class. With its title defense, the spacious station wagon, which cuts a good figure on and off paved roads thanks to its increased ground clearance and all-wheel drive, puts all six competitors in the spotlight.
