Guys,
I'm planning to get the UX 200.
But first I would like to get an idea on the following:
- PMS cost / maintenance cost in general
- spare parts availability
- spare parts costs
- over all view on the vehicle
Thanks!
seriously? if you are going to buy a premium brand like Lexus then PMS and spare parts cost should be out of the question.
the only valid thing to ask probably is parts availability. but the dealership of Lexus surely have covered that. they may not have the spare readily on hand but they certainly can order as the need arises.

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I just want to have an idea since the price of the UX (2.47M) is relatively near the price of the Rav4 LTD 2019 (2.2M) and the Mazda CX-9 (2.35M).
So if the maintenance cost wouldn't be too bad, I'd go for the UX rather than the Rav4 nor the CX-9.
I've heard that spare parts availability of Mazda is not that good.
For that amount of money, a CX9 is worth it unless you really don't want a sleek 7-seater SUV. The UX is even smaller than the NX.
For something like less than 3M, the best Lexus to own is the IS350.
Thanks Sir for the feedback.
UX lang talaga ang Lexus model na medyo malapit price sa other models (na I think high-end din) like CX-9, RaV4 LTD, kaya medyo napaisip ako bigla. Kase dream ko din yan Sir e.
Yung PMS nya is okay naman at 18k/25K pero once a year lang. Yung iba kase like Chevy Trailblazer, inaabot ako ng almost 18K every 6months so in total mas mahal pa sya kase twice a year ang PMS.
Dyan ako nadale kase hindi ako nag research about PMS cost ng Chevy TrailBlazer. And mahal din spare parts nya ha. So if same lang pala maintenance cost sana di na ako nag TB, diretso UX na hehe
Yeah it is really huge. Been salivating for the CX-9 because it is really pretty Sir., The problem with it is its fuel efficiency (gas only). With a bit of traffic daw, it goes down to 5.5Km/Liter mainly because of its huge engine to accommodate its size. Worse than the Ford Explorer...
I guess entertaining the idea of buying a vehicle priced over 2M would mean that fuel efficiency is the least of your concerns. The folks who buy such vehicles appreciate the finer and better things in life. They would want more refinement, more comfort, or more performance from vehicles of that price range.
However, a neighbor who has both the Lexus NX and Subaru XT has observed that his NX is more fuel efficient than his XT despite both vehicles having the same size and powerplant (2.0L turbo petrol).
The NX comes with an 8-speed AT tranny and not a CVT. Too bad they don't offer the same combo on Toyota models. Toyota buyers will have to deal with the lower spec, more boring options.
That neighbor also has an IS350. He tells me that the NX offers a good amount of torque down low compared to the IS350. Well, turbocharging does have its merits and availability of peak torque at lower rpms is one of the them.
