ANALYSISHow safe is the 2024 Lexus UX 250h?
The 2024 Lexus UX 250h holds a NHTSA Safety Index of 91/100, matching the 2023 model year exactly and maintaining the Exceptional band for a second consecutive year. That stability is meaningful: the index held its ceiling rather than slipping, and the underlying breakdown reveals why. The defect-record sub-score is a perfect 20/20, a direct reflection of the zero recalls on file for this model year. The avoidance-tech sub-score is also a perfect 10/10, supported by forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and electronic stability control all listed as standard equipment. Crash protection contributed 61 of a possible 70 points, consistent with the five-star overall NHTSA rating and the four-star results in frontal and rollover categories. The single owner complaint on file, an unverified structural allegation with no reported crashes or injuries, does not register as a pattern concern at this volume. Taken together, the 2024 model year is defined by its clean defect record and full avoidance-tech credit, two factors that anchor the Exceptional designation.
