It’s times like these I yearn for simpler times and thank goodness BMW’s managed to give that even for just one afternoon.

Review: 2021 Lexus UX 200 F Sport


What’s in a label? On one hand, the overall shape and form of the Lexus UX says it is a hatchback, but the plastic cladding and (slightly) raised ride height says it is an SUV. Regardless of label though, Lexus perfectly understands that everyone wants crossovers these days, and they have decided to make their entry-level model exactly that.
