A quick look at Lexus's latest edition of its luxury crossover
Saftey
Inflation has come to the 2010 Lexus RX 350 too—there are 10 airbags in all, curtain airbags and side bags for the rear seats among them. The RX also sports standard anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control on all models, as well as a hill-holder feature for safer take-offs on swoopy terrain. Optional safety equipment includes a dynamic-handling system that weaves together traction and stability control; a Pre-Collision System that uses radar sensors to detect a possible impact, then readies the brakes and seatbelts for an imminent crash; adaptive lighting; and automatic high beams. TheCarConnection.com will revisit the RX's safety ratings when NHTSA and the IIHS perform their safety tests.
