LEXUS SAFETY SYSTEM +

Lexus Safety System + includes a range of cutting edge standard safety features to ensure appropriate reactions and warnings to whatever circumstances you might find yourself in.

For example, a high beam system that reacts automatically to the surrounding light and traffic to switch off high-beams; an active cruise control system that judges the speed and distance of other vehicles and adjusts your speed accordingly; Lane Keep Assist (LKA)⁸ to warn you if you start to drift out of your lane; and a pre-collision system that can warn you of a potential collision.

PRE-COLLISION SAFETY SYSTEM

Utilising both a radar and a camera, the Pre-Collision Safety System (PCS)¹⁹ takes action whenever it perceives a possible impending collision.

Firstly you'll hear a buzzer and see a warning in the Multi-Information Display (MID) followed by the arming of the Pre-Collision Brake Assist to supplement your braking effort. Finally, if a collision is deemed unavoidable and you have not responded, Pre-Collision Braking helps to reduce impact speed.

LANE KEEP ASSIST

Unintentionally veering out of your lane is one of the most dangerous yet common driving situations, so it’s comforting to know that the LC feature Lexus’ most advanced lane departure system – Lane Keep Assist (LKA)⁸.

LKA is a multi-faceted system, guarding and assisting you in three ways.
Should you unintentionally veer out of your lane the first stage is a warning tone to alert you, followed by gentle steering assistance to help correct your position. Then, while Active Cruise Control is operating, steering assistance can be further enhanced to help maintain a central position in your lane.

Prototype LC model shown depicting Pop-up Pedestrian Detecting Safety Bonnet

PEDESTRIAN SAFETY BONNET

The bonnet structure is not only stunning, but looks out for the safety of any wayward pedestrians.

The LC is able to determine when a pedestrian or other moveable objects has been collided with based on signals from sensors in a polyethylene chamber within the front bumper.

If the system is activated, the bonnet pops up to provide a cushioning deformation zone and help absorb collision impact, helping reduce the risk of pedestrian injury.

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM

To ensure optimum vision at all times, the LC is fitted with an Automatic High Beam (AHB)⁹ device which intelligently detects both oncoming and preceding light from other vehicles, to automatically shut off the high beams as needed and then ensure they reactivate as soon as the path ahead is clear.

Prototype LC model shown depicting Radar Active Cruise Control(2)

RADAR CRUISE CONTROL

Linking to the Pre-Collision Safety System (PCS), Radar Active Cruise Control (RACC)² monitors the position of preceding vehicles and matches your speed to maintain a safe distance when Cruise Control is activated.

It can even control your speed all the way to a standstill if necessary, perfect for stop start traffic.
