On the motorway, the Jaecoo E5 is a relatively quiet place to spend time, while the Lexus LBX is very quiet when you reach a cruise. On twisty roads, however, both cars lean a lot in the bends. When comparing performance, the Jaecoo E5 is more powerful than the Lexus LBX. Practicality in the boot also differs: lifting heavy items into the E5 is not too bad because the floor lines up with the bumper, but the LBX has a deep lip, so you need to reach in if you are loading something heavy. In the back seats, the Lexus gives you good under-thigh support, whereas the floor in the Jaecoo is a bit high, so you do not get great under-thigh support.
