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

A comprehensive Multi-terrain Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) provides excellent brake performance even on dirt roads, gravel and sand.

With the available Lexus Link® [1], fast, 24-hour emergency service can be called at the touch of a button.

When stopped on an incline, Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) helps prevent the LX from rolling backward when you step off the brake before accelerating.

With 10 state-of-the-art airbags [2], you're surrounded by more airbags than in any other luxury SUV.

In certain low-speed rear-end collisions, active front headrests [3] raise diagonally upward helping to decrease the movement of the head relative to the spine.

Three-point seatbelts in all seating positions with pre-tensioners on the front- and second-row outboard seats, help to keep all of your passengers safe. The front-row seatbelts also include force limiters.

The Dual-swivel Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) helps you to conquer night driving by pivoting the headlamps into turns.

The available Pre-Collision System (PCS) [4] uses a millimeter-wave radar sensor to detect an impending collision. The LX reacts by retracting the front seatbelts and preparing Brake Assist [5] for increased brake force when the driver steps hard on the brake pedal.

Stay on course with advanced features such as Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) [6] and four-wheel Active Traction Control (A-TRAC).

When the deicer is activated, a heating element in the lower windshield aids in melting any ice that has accumulated on the wiper blades.


 
 
[1]An active Lexus Link® subscription (including a signed Lexus Link Service Subscription Agreement) is required in order to receive Lexus Link services. Lexus Link services require vehicle electrical system and wireless service to be available and operating for features to function properly. Lexus Link uses existing emergency service providers as well as wireless and satellite technologies. A one-year subscription to the Safety Plan is included with the purchase of a new vehicle. Other plans are available at an additional cost. [2]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. [3]Active headrests can help prevent or limit the extent of whiplash in certain types of rear-end collisions. [4]The Pre-Collision System is designed to help reduce the crash speed and damage in certain frontal collisions only. It is not a collision-avoidance system and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as speed, driver input and road conditions. Please see your Owner's Manual for further information. [5]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. [6]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.
