Lexus has refreshed the equipment grades and standard specification of its premium SUV models, the NX and RX.
All models are now self-charging hybrids with all-wheel drive.
The RX comes with Lexus Safety System+ fitted as standard, providing a Pre-Collision System, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, Sway Warning System, Traffic Sign Recognition and Automatic High Beam/Adaptive High-beam System.
Key features of the entry-level RX model include 18-inch alloy wheels, smooth leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, eight-inch Lexus Navigation, DAB, front and rear parking sensors and Smart Entry.
Three option packs are now available for the RX:
- The Sport Pack provides 20-inch black alloy wheels, black spindle grille and black door mirror casings.
- The Premium Pack introduces 20-inch alloys, 12.3-inch Lexus Navigation, triple-eye LED headlamps, auto-dimming rear-view mirror, heated steering wheel, power tailgate and wireless smartphone charger.
- The Tech and Safety Pack (offered only in conjunction with the Premium Pack on the RX) adds a colour head-up display, Blind Spot Monitor, Rear Cross Traffic Alert with Intelligent Clearance Sonar and automatic braking, auto-folding/auto-dimming door mirrors, power tailgate with no-touch sensor and a panoramic roof. This pack can also be selected for the RX F Sport.
F Sport versions now feature a heated steering wheel and power tailgate.
At the top of the range, the RX Takumi gains a new power-folding function for the rear seats; the rear seats also have integrated heaters.
The seven-seat RX L also adopts the new grade names, with the SE, Luxury and Premier replaced by RX L and Takumi.
