Pre–Collision Safety technology thinks ahead

A Pre–Collision Safety System (PCS) in the Sports Luxury model is designed to determine when a collision is unavoidable. It relays information to the Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) to lower the vehicle and also pre–arms the Pre Collision Brake Assist, skid control and seatbelts to help reduce occupant injury.

Cruise easier with Active Cruise Control

The Sports Luxury model also features the reassurance of Adaptive Cruise Control. When cruising at highway speeds the millimetre wave radar sensor in the front grille monitors the road ahead. If it detects another vehicle ahead, Active Cruise Control (ACC) slows you down by controlling engine output and braking to help maintain a safe following distance.

Rigid Body Structure & Impact Absorbing Frame

The LX 570 is built on an extremely rigid, high tensile steel frame which incorporates an Energy Absorbing (EA) frontal section. This EA safety frame together with front crumple zones in the body panels are designed to absorb impact energy during a frontal collision. High tensile steel reinforcements around the cabin help ensure a rigid body structure, for greater occupant protection.

The confidence of 10 SRS airbags.

A comprehensive package of airbags includes dual stage front airbags which deploy in accordance with impact severity. For front seat occupants there are also dual knee airbags and seat mounted side airbags. For the 2nd row seats, should you be involved in a side collision, seat mounted side airbags help protect the outer occupants.

Side curtain shield airbags for all 3 rows of seats

In the event of a side collision, side curtain shield airbags, which are fitted as standard, deploy from above the doors to cover the side windows. These help protect the outer occupants in all three rows of seats.

Greater powers of restraint

Revolutionary whiplash–lessening front seats with active headrests are fitted as standard, which help reduce the risk of injury to the neck area. Seat belt pretensioners help provide restraint while 2–stage force limiters help alleviate impact on the body during a collision.

Multi Terrain ABS for slippery off–road conditions

To enhance stopping performance off–road, a multi–terrain Anti–lock Braking System (ABS) utilises an automatic hydraulic pressure control. This tailors braking response wheel by wheel for optimum performance on challenging surfaces like sand, mud and loose gravel. To compensate for changes in vehicle load, Electronic Brake–force Distribution adjusts braking effort applied to each wheel.

Safer cornering with Vehicle Stability Control

When cornering in wet or otherwise slippery conditions, Vehicle Stability Control can anticipate a skid. It then controls the braking system, engine output and the vehicle’s steering system to help maintain your chosen line around the corner.

See in reverse with the Rear View Camera**

For safer reversing, a Rear View Camera is fitted as standard allows you to see objects that are difficult to see from the driver's seat. It displays a colour picture of what's immediately behind your rear bumper the moment you select reverse. Rear Guide Assist provides a series of reference lines to give you a more precise indication of distances.

** Rear View Camera is designed as a driver assist device only and should not be used as a substitute for skilled driving and safe parking practices. The area into which the vehicle is to be reversed must still be visually monitored by the driver while parking. Keep reversing speeds under five kilometres per hour. Camera images may be affected by the weather and light conditions. Always observe skilled driving and safe parking practices
