Lexus First All Electric Vehicle Goes On Sale - But You Can't Get It Here

The Lexus UX 300e crossover went on sale to Chinese consumers on Sunday, April 26. The Toyota-branded version of the same model, the C-HR, will go on sale this week – with the Izoa variant to soon follow.

The three battery-electric models – the Lexus UX300e, Toyota C-HR, and Toyota Izoa – share the same Toyota New Global Architecture. The three vehicles use a 54.3-kilowatt-hour battery pack.

Unless it looks apart like a Prius or a Tesla it won't sell. Any competitor who wants to do well in the EV market needs designs that will make them look and say "I am an EV".

An ICE vehicle with batteries glued in isn't the ticket.
