LX Performance

Crawl Control [1] is a remarkable feature that allows you to go places few other vehicles can. When activated at slow speeds, Crawl Control allows you to take your foot off the accelerator and brake pedal, allowing you to concentrate on steering over rough terrain.

When climbing steep slopes and rugged terrain, Crawl Control helps to maintain a slow, steady speed in difficult off-road conditions. In conjunction with Active Height Control (X-AHC) and Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS), the LX can raise an additional three inches to help prevent the vehicle from bottoming out over particularly rocky terrain. By maintaining low speeds, Crawl Control is designed to allow the driver to concentrate on steering, while regulating the engine output and brake application to help control vehicle speed and prevent wheel slippage. With the new Turn Assist function added to Crawl Control, drivability and turning performance around tight corners are enhanced.
