https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexus_UX claims the UX series as a whole is based upon Toyota's new TNGA platform. https://lexusenthusiast.com/2018/03/12/motor-trend-interviews-lexus-ux-chief-engineer-chika-kako/comment-page-3/ seems to confirm that.

Unfortunately, the "genius" Wikipedia editors "in charge" have continued their "XW" nonsense with Prius at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_New_Global_Architecture#GA-C and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Prius_(XW50). Gen 4 Prius appears to be ZVW50, not "XW50" just like just like gen 3 Prius was ZVW30 (https://www.toyota-global.com/company/history_of_toyota/75years/vehicle_lineage/car/id60000972/index.html) and not "XW30" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Prius_(XW30)).

I'm just talking about a styling resemblance, not saying that it's actually a re-badged or re-skinned Subaru.

I owned the Lexus CT200h hybrid some years ago. Looks pretty similar to me, but perhaps raised an inch or two
 
Don't really think this one needs its own thread but I suppose it may be up there in the same level of interest as the RAV-4 PHEV; this one is another Lexus adding a bit of an alternative to using just gas (not as good as the RAV-4 in electric only range) but better than say what the early BMW SUV's with plug-in capabilities offered. No specific price listed yet but expect a decent premium above current NX price range of $38,635 to $41,185:
