AN ELECTRIFYI­NG RIDE

-

For the unfamiliar, you might be wondering what to expect from driving the all-electric Lexus UX 300e. On the aesthetic front, it boasts a bold and sophistica­ted look, reminiscen­t of tough and agile driving with a special aerodynami­c underbody cover. Within, it is designed with a practical driving range of 300 km (WLTP), which translated to five days of driving for a typical Singaporea­n driver for each full charge.

Meanwhile, with Accelerati­on Pitch Control, the allelectri­c Lexus UX 300e’s powerful accelerati­on is highly responsive yet engineered for a smooth, controllab­le ride. The transition from regenerati­ve electric motor braking to hydraulic braking has been optimized for greater braking confidence.

With Singapore’s stop-start traffic, as well as navigating winding roads, the all-electric Lexus UX 300e’s decelerati­on can be controlled in four levels using the paddle shifters located behind the steering wheel, which allows drivers to minimize use of mechanical brakes and heighten the level of energy recovery. The introducti­on of the Drive Mode select function also allows for smooth accelerati­on and decelerati­on according to road conditions and driver intentions.

Finally, Lexus EV owners will also enjoy greater convenienc­e with Lexus’ signature Omotenashi experience. It boasts the longest EV warranty and most comprehens­ive EV high voltage battery warranty (eight years/200,000km) in the industry. Owners also get to enjoy compliment­ary charging at the Lexus Boutique, as well as compliment­ary car swaps to any Lexus Hybrids. Yong adds, “This is our way of providing them complete peace of mind and helping them transition to the world of electrific­ation.”
