To help with tight manoeuvres, all versions come with front and rear parking sensors and a reversing camera. Range-topping Takumi models and the Original Edition add a 360-degree bird's eye view camera.
“I found theinterior to be well finished, and features like selectableambient lighting colours help to make the LBX feel more special than the Toyota C-HR.” – Stuart Milne, Digital Editor
Passenger & boot space
How it copes with people and clutter
Strengths
- +Plenty of interior storage
- +Good-sized boot
- +Powered tailgate standard on higher trims
Weaknesses
- -Rivals are bigger in the back
- -Rear seats don't do anything clever
You won't struggle for space in the front of the Lexus LBX. There's plenty of head and leg room to allow taller people to get comfy, plus lots of storage dotted around the interior, including two cupholders, a large central storage cubby and a sizeableshelf below the centre console. The door binsare on the small side, though, as is the glovebox.
However, while you and your front passenger won't have any complaints about space, anyone sitting in the back will feelmore cramped. Don't get us wrong,a six-footer will fit – they just might find their heads brushing against the ceiling.
The Audi Q2, andnon-premium rivals such as the Skoda Kamiq and the VW T-Roc, have a noticeable amount more head and leg room, so are better bets if you plan to put adults in the back on a regular basis.
Front-wheel-drive versions of the LBX have a respectable402 litres of boot space. For comparison, equivalent versions of the Q2 have405 litres of luggage capacity while the T-Roc has 445 litres. We managed to load six carry-on suitcases below the LBX's parcel shelf, the same number we squeezedin the Q2 and one fewer than fitted in the T-Roc.
