What are the Cheapest Lexus Models Available?

Lexus is a brand that has been manufacturing reliable, well-trusted vehicles since 2005. It is a branch of the Japanese automotive company, Toyota, selling their premium range cars. The brand aims for comfort, speed, and a classy aesthetic, which are not usually values that can be bought cheaply.

However, Lexus does sell some of its luxury vehicles at a lower price, aimed at the everyday car buyer. Whilst these vehicles do not have the same elegance and momentum as the top-end models, they are some of the cheapest Lexus models currently on the market.

1Lexus CT 200H

What is the Cheapest Lexus Models: Lexus CT 200H

At a price of between $19,879 and $26,603, the Lexus CT 200H is the cheapest functional car that the brand has on offer. This sporty electric hybrid (one of Lexus’s first) was originally designed in 2010, based on the electric Prius, using the same technology in the engine. Although the CT is no longer available in the US, due to its environmentally low fuel economy, the car is still being manufactured in most other countries.

Some advantages of the car include the heated seats, the Bluetooth connectivity, the reverse camera, and the specialized safety system, equipped with cruise control, lane-keep assist, and a pre-collision system.

2Lexus NX 200T

What is the Cheapest Lexus Models: Lexus NX200T

The Lexus NX200T is a car designed to create powerful speeds through its top of the range driving dynamics. With a similar build to the Toyota RAV4, Lexus' crossover SUV provides a unique turbocharged, 4-cylinder gasoline engine and a pair of electric motors to help create a smooth and speedy experience for anyone riding. And the car, along with all of these exclusive features, can be yours for the reasonable price of just $25,000.

The SUV was first introduced in 2014, but unfortunately, manufacturing has stopped in the US, and this is, again, down to its unenvironmentally friendly qualities. However, the car is a massive success in European countries, like the UK and Germany, and the vehicle continues to be built in these countries.

3Lexus UX 200

What is the Cheapest Lexus Models: Lexus UK Urban Explorer 200

The Lexus UK 200 is one of the most recent designs from the company, being released in March of 2018. The crossover SUV is available for a low price of $33,325, giving it one of the best values for money on the list. The car has top-class handling, a 2-liter engine (powered by petrol rather than diesel), variable transmission, and all in a relatively fuel-efficient, compact size.

The car is designed for usability, rather than sport, so it provides several features such as the low center of gravity for a smooth driving experience, or the ventilated seats for the driver's comfort.

4Lexus IS300 Sedan

What is the Cheapest Lexus Models: Lexus IS300 Sedan

The 2019-released Lexus IS300 Sedan is available for prices starting at $38,560, making it the cheapest Lexus Intelligent Sportscar available for purchase. The car has several versions, and this is the most recent, although a new version with updated technology should be appearing later this year (2020). The price listed is guidance, as any additional sports features or GPS cost more, with the highest price being about $44,000.

This particular version is based on the IS300, made in 2013, with lots of the same features, and so some features of the car do not use the most recent electronics. Despite this, the car is still dependable, very sporty, and well worth the purchase.

5Lexus NX 300T

What is the Cheapest Lexus Models: Lexus NX 300T

Another SUV, this car is the most family-friendly of the cheap Lexus cars. Suitable for 5 passengers, the car has been released very recently (2020), and so contains the best technology available. Whilst basic models will cost around $36,500, any upgrades will cause this model to cost about $45,000. The NX 300T has a mixture of both power and a smooth drive, using a dependable engine and double boost gauges. Other electronic features of this car are blind-spot monitoring and surround-sound.

The Bottom Line

So to conclude, all models of the Lexus are dependable and powerful, but some of them are sold at a much more affordable price for regular drivers. Some of these cars will be more suited to you than others, depending on your situation, but all of them are worth looking at if you are interested in a premium, sporty Lexus vehicle.
