Farewell to my UX 300e


Recommended Posts

Bidding farewell to my UX 300e.

I have had the pleasure of a UX 300e for a while now. It was the Takumi model and was comfortable to drive around town with minimum fuss.

My model was on the lower 54Kw Battery, but it was more than enough for London driving, anything beyond required planning and contingency . 

Mixed driving without AC or heating saw realistic 140 miles average. With AC on minus 20 miles off it.
I have driven to France and on the motorway if you drive above 70mph you can kiss 100Km of range goodbye.
And using the Chademo charger is a pain as it has a very low charging speed, so I was waiting around 40-1 hour to top up at charge stations.
This is good and comfortable city car but not one to venture out outside its comfort zone. 

I have since then sold it as the chademo charger was a big issue for me, as many charge stations I came across either do not have the charger or its not working.
With more support for CCS and faster charge, I cannot understand why Lexus did not make the newer UX 300e with a CCS.

The Lexus RZ did not appeal me, so hopefully if they release a EV model that meets my needs, I should be back.


Thanks for all your support.
