Compare the Toyota Yaris Cross vs Lexus LBX
AI generated from our expert reviews
Both of these small hybrid SUVs come with practical compromises in the back seats. Tall passengers will find headroom tight in both, carrying three people across the rear is a squeeze, and fitting a child seat is tricky because neither car has particularly wide rear doors. However, they go about luggage and comfort differently. The Toyota Yaris Cross has more room with the back seats folded down, and loading heavy items is easy thanks to its lack of a load lip and wide opening. By contrast, the Lexus LBX has a deep load lip that forces you to reach in. On the move, the Yaris Cross can feel a bit firm over broken or potholed town roads, whereas the LBX delivers a softer ride over lumps and bumps.
