Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Lexus NX 250 than in the Lexus UX 250h. The Lexus NX 250 will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Lexus UX 250h.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Lexus NX 250 as you will with the Lexus UX 250h, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Lexus NX 250 is somewhat more expensive than the Lexus UX 250h.

Dimensions
The Lexus NX 250 is a little wider than the Lexus UX 250h, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Lexus NX 250, which is slightly longer than the Lexus UX 250h.

Handling
The Lexus NX 250 has a significantly larger turning radius than the Lexus UX 250h, making it much more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Lexus NX 250 has a little more horsepower than the Lexus UX 250h.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Lexus NX 250 and the Lexus UX 250h.
