TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2019 Lexus UX gives its maker a kicky new entry point for crossover shoppers.

The 2019 Volvo XC40 upends tradition—and traditional style—in mostly acceptable ways, and kicks off the car-subscription era with a stylish bang.

TCC Likes

Attractive styling...
... inside and out
Hybrid's excellent predicted fuel economy

Clever interior features
Competent turbo-4 in T5 trims
Smooth 8-speed automatic

TCC Dislikes

On paper, not much power
CVTs aren't our favorite transmissions
AWD only with hybrid

Exterior can get funky—and not the good kind
Frustrating shift knob
A Swedish car with extra-cost heated seats?
