Three Safety Technologies that Make Every Drive Safer in the 2022 Lexus RX

For 2022, the Lexus RX continues its long tradition of being at the forefront of its category in terms of safety due to its vast array of technologies.

The blind spot monitoring and the rear cross-traffic alert

The 2022 Lexus RX is equipped as standard with the blind spot monitoring system since it is part of the LSS+ 2.0 suite of standard safety features. This system tells you when there is a car in your blind spot, a very useful feature on the highway, where merging happens a lot. In addition to alerting, you to cars you may not have seen on the highway, this system also incorporates the Rear cross-traffic alert system, a technology engineered to make driving around in parking lots easier. Indeed, the rear-cross traffic alert tells you when there are people or cars moving perpendicularly behind the RX, something that can be hard to see in crowded places. If a collision seems likely, the system can use the brakes to stop the RX from getting hit by a passing car.

The 360-degree cameras

The 2022 Lexus RX can be ordered with a 360-degree camera system that gives you a bird’s eye view of your vehicle’s surroundings in order to help you maneuver in tight spaces without hitting anything. Some of the camera views benefit from active guidelines that show the path the RX will take depending on how you turn the steering wheel, a very useful feature that helps you position your vehicle exactly where you want it to be.

The Adaptive cruise control

The 2022 Lexus RX comes standard with the adaptive cruise control, a convenience feature that is also a safety feature, since it constantly maintains a safe distance behind the vehicle in front. This means that no matter the situation, when you activate the adaptive cruise control, you know you will have a safe and relaxing experience.
