Find the feature you are looking for in one comprehensive list.

An Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Brake Assist [1] helps the driver avoid accidents by reducing stopping time and enhancing control.

With this theft-deterrent system, a rolling code immobilizes [2] the engine unless the proper key is used.

To help avoid accidents before they happen, the available Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) pivots the headlamps during turns to illuminate more of the road.

A sophisticated network of sensors and seven airbags [3] helps protect you and your passengers in certain types of severe frontal and side impacts.

A range of structural reinforcements, as well as front and rear crumple zones, helps protect you and your passengers.

To help others see your vehicle during daylight hours, it comes equipped with automatic daytime running lights.

Advanced Actively Safe features such as Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) [4] and Traction Control (TRAC) help keep your vehicle on course while turning.

One of 14 different Actively Safe features in the RX, the system alerts you when the tire pressure is critically low.

For greater visibility during precipitation, the driver and front-seat passenger have the advantage of windows made from water-repellent front-door glass.


 
 
[1]Brake Assist is designed to help the driver take full advantage of the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake-system maintenance and tire and road conditions. [2]The engine immobilizer is a state-of-the-art anti-theft system. The key transmits an electronic code to the vehicle. The engine will only start if the code in the transponder chip inside the key matches the code in the vehicle’s immobilizer. Because the transponder chip is embedded in the key, it can be costly to replace. If you lose a key, your Lexus dealer can help, or you can find a qualified independent locksmith to perform high security key services at www.aloa.org. [3]All the airbag (“AB”) systems are Supplemental Restraint Systems. All ABs (if installed) are designed to inflate only under certain conditions and in certain types of severe collisions: frontal and knee ABs typically inflate in frontal collisions; side and side curtain ABs in side collisions; Roll-Sensing Curtain ABs at a severe tilt degree, roll or lateral G-force. In all other accidents, the ABs will not inflate. To decrease the risk of injury from an inflating AB, always wear seatbelts, sit upright in the middle of the seat as far back as possible and do not lean against the door. Do not put objects in front of an AB or around the seatback. Do not use a rearward-facing child seat in any front passenger seat. The force of an inflating AB may cause serious injury or death. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further information/warnings. [4]Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) is an electronic system designed to help the driver maintain vehicle control under adverse conditions. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Factors including speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all affect whether VSC will be effective in preventing a loss of control. Please see your Owner's Manual for further details.
