Three things that make life in a 2021 Lexus RX easier in winter

With fall just around the corner, you have to mentally prepare yourself for winter and its inconveniences including more difficult driving conditions.

Fortunately, the Lexus RX offers a host of features that have been designed to make our winter life easier. We offer you three.

1 - Life on board

To find winter pleasant with a vehicle, we must be able to take advantage of a model that offers us helpful features. This is the case with the Lexus RX. Take the interior, for example. It is equipped out of the gate with protective mats designed for winter. Above all, all the options allowing us to pamper us are present on board, such as the heated steering wheel and the heated functions for the front AND rear seats. Windshield wipers also benefit from a de-icer feature, because Lexus knows safety comes from excellent visibility, all the time. In short, once you are onboard an RX, you forget it's winter.

2 - LSS + 2.0

The letters LSS in Lexus parlance refer to the Lexus Safety Sense safety system. In fact, this is just a set of features that are offered to give you the safest ride. Technologies including a lane keeping assist system that helps you correct your course should you be drifting in the next lane. The system also offers adaptive cruise control and automatic emergency braking functions if an imminent collision is detected. Pedestrians are also protected, because the RX detects their presence so that they can brake in case of danger.

3 - All-wheel drive

Of course, facing winter safely means being able to benefit from an excellent all-wheel drive system. In that sense, the 2021 Lexus RX no longer has to prove itself. The latter offers locking functions, but can also have some of its features deactivated as needed (traction control, for example). Power is sent to the wheels that need it, all the time. From the cabin, you can’t see the system working, but you always feel in control. Once again, we forget that we are driving in the worst conditions with Lexus all-wheel drive.
