Lexus LBX (2024) Australia Review Interior and Exterior || OTO 13BX1

While the Luxury is front-wheel drive only, the Sports Luxury offers AWD with a second motor on the rear axle. All-wheel drive models are fitted with a more sophisticated multi-link rear suspension instead of a torsion beam.

Based on a modified version of the GA-B platform used by the Toyota Yaris and Yaris Cross, the Lexus LBX uses the same 1.5-litre three-cylinder naturally-aspirated hybrid engine but with a more potent electric motor and a larger battery for more performance and additional electric driving range.

The LBX does not share any no external panels or interior components with the Yaris or Yaris Cross. Lexus claims it has a lower centre of gravity, wider tracks, shorter overhangs, and more body rigidity.

Measuring 4190mm long, 1825mm wide and 1545mm tall, the LBX is 305mm shorter and 15mm narrower, but 25mm taller, than the one-size-up UX. It rides on a 2580mm wheelbase, with 60mm less between the front and rear axle than the UX.
