When switched from optical to Digital Rear-view Mirror mode, the wide mirror displays real-time images from the back-up camera to provide a wider field of view unobstructed by headrests or passengers’ heads, helping to check safety behind the vehicle. The high-resolution images have natural colors, and also realize clear visibility at night.
An easy closer function reliably closes side doors that have been left ajar.
Roof rails made of lightweight aluminum help reduce the vehicle’s inertia moment. The moonroof, which creates a feeling of openness in the cabin, is standard equipment.
Lexus Climate Concierge provides whole-body comfort for each occupant. It also contributes to energy saving, limiting excessive operation by controlling overheating and overcooling. By setting their preferences in advance, occupants can enjoy continuous comfort without the need to operate the system. In this way, the Concierge provides the essence of Japanese hospitality through air-conditioning harmony where the occupants wishes are considered and everything is prepared in advance.
When driving in rough off-road conditions or on slippery roads, Crawl Control enables driving at extremely low speeds by allowing the driver to simply steer without operating the accelerator and brake pedals. When descending steep hills where engine braking alone is not sufficient to slow the vehicle, at the flick of a switch the system automatically controls the brakes on all four wheels to support stable descent without locking the wheels.
The system supports the driver by using four cameras to show conditions around the vehicle. Images from the front, left, right, and rear cameras can be selected using a camera switch and viewed full-screen on the 12.3-inch touch display, allowing the driver to check road conditions around the vehicle which are often in blind spots. By composing camera images that match the vehicle’s height while driving off-road, it provides the driver with a clearer picture of the surrounding environment and peace of mind.
With EPS, the LX responds linearly from the start of steering operation. At low speeds, such as off-road driving, the light steering feel contributes to reducing the burden on the driver. At high speeds, a moderate steering force in line with the vehicle’s speed provides a driving experience faithful to the driver’s intentions, and a responsive steering feel that is distinctively Lexus.
AVS features a linear solenoid valve system that realizes excellent damping force switching response, contributing to smooth, fine-grained control on different road surfaces and driving conditions. Damping force is set low to provide excellent ride comfort when driving over bumpy city roads, and increases to give a flat stable ride when turning. Also, the damping force changes with the drive mode selected, contributing to driving in line with the driver’s preference.
In response to the driving environment, AHC automatically adjusts the optimal vehicle height based on drive mode select, Multi terrain Select, and transfer selection status to one of four height positions-Normal, High 1, High 2, and Low, for getting into or out of the vehicle. AHC also responds to changes in vehicle posture such as the amount of pitch and roll, and optimizes the spring rate to stabilize vehicle posture during turning, acceleration, and deceleration when braking.
