Standard safety equipment is impressive: frontal, side-impact and curtain airbags, seat belts with pretensioners and force limiters, and a first aid kit. The curtain airbags are designed to provide head protection for the four outboard passengers in the front and second-row seats in a side impact or rollover. Windshield wipers adjust for rain automatically and the windshield is coated with water repellant. Optional Lexus Link ($1,215) sends the rescue squad if you press an emergency button or if one of the airbags goes off and you don't respond.
Options include a rear-seat DVD entertainment system that plays movies on a 6.5-inch overhead screen and a brilliant Mark Levinson audio system ($1,280). Night View ($2,200) is available, which uses near-infrared technology to illuminate people, deer and other objects at night up to 500 feet away and display them on a section of the windshield in front of the driver. There's also a roof rack with cross bars ($220) and a rear spoiler ($280). Next Page
