Additional Lexus Safety System+ Features for the 2022 NX

Added on to the current 2021 Lexus NX Safety System+ are a few special features for this brand-new edition of the NX. These are highlighted by:

  • Adaptive High-Beam System
      • A first for Lexus in Canada, a monocular camera that detects vehicles in front using light, and then adjusts the light distribution in your headlights so that the high beam functionality doesn’t affect oncoming drivers.
  • Pre-Collision System
      • Detects collisions from vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists in low light.
  • Road Sign Assist
    • Its built-in camera will display the road sign info on your instrument panel (and head-up display if available). Perfect for keeping abreast of signs you may have missed.

Digital Latch & Safe Exit Assist

Smooth and safe entry and exit to your Lexus is done with ease thanks to the brand-new Digital Latch system, which activates at just the push of a button. Safe Exit Assist works in concert with this feature by scanning around your vehicle for any vehicles or pedestrians, to make sure you aren’t entering or exiting with a risk of collision. Provide all-encompassing safety for you, the driver, and your passengers in your Lexus, from entry to driving to exit, every step of the way.
