ONE STEP CLOSER TO A WORLD WITHOUT ACCIDENTS.
Lexus Safety
At Lexus, we’re constantly looking out for the driver. It’s why every 2020 and newer Lexus model comes standard with Lexus Safety System+,* a comprehensive suite of active safety equipment. With the introduction of Lexus Safety System+ 2.5* in the 2021 IS, we're closer than ever to realizing our ultimate vision: an accident-free world. From additional left-turn intersection detection of a pedestrian and vehicle to cruise-control technology that can help detect an upcoming curve, this is not just the most sophisticated standard safety system ever included in a Lexus. It’s a preview of what’s to come. Scroll for more information about Lexus safety. Or, to learn more about the most advanced IS ever, use the link below.
Standard on all new Lexus vehicles, Lexus Safety System+* is an integrated suite of four advanced safety systems designed to help in certain circumstances, from alerting you of pedestrians* to helping you maintain a preset speed and following distance from the vehicle ahead.* Lexus Safety System+ 2.0* and 2.5* push the technology even further with two additional systems that can provide road sign information* and can even help keep your vehicle centered in its lane on highways with gradual curves.*
- Pre-Collision System
- Lane Assistance
- Intelligent High Beams
- Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
- ROAD SIGN ASSIST
Pre-Collision System
Lexus Safety System+* includes a Pre-Collision System* with Pedestrian Detection that’s engineered to help detect a vehicle or a pedestrian in the path of your Lexus under certain conditions. Should it detect a potential frontal collision, it’s designed to automatically prepare Brake Assist* for increased brake force and, in some cases, can even automatically brake the vehicle to a stop.
Lexus Safety System+ 2.0* and 2.5* features enhanced radar and camera capabilities, making it possible for them to also help detect a preceding bicyclist in daytime and even a preceding pedestrian in daytime and low-light conditions.* Lexus Safety System+ 2.5* features additional left-turn intersection detection of a pedestrian and vehicle.

Lane Assistance
Lexus Safety System+* offers a variety of lane assistance systems. Lane Departure Alert* is designed to provide an audible alert if an inadvertent lane departure is detected. Lane Departure Alert* with Steering Assist can take corrective measures with a slight pull on the steering wheel. Lane Keep Assist* can integrate with the cruise-control system to help prevent drifting before it occurs.
Lexus Safety System+ 2.0* and 2.5* also feature Lane Tracing Assist.* This hands-on system integrates with All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control* to help the driver keep their vehicle centered in the lane, even in traffic and on highways with gradual curves. In addition to monitoring visible lane markings, Lexus Safety System+ 2.5* can also recognize vehicles ahead.

Intelligent High Beams
Intelligent High Beams* are included in both Lexus Safety System+ systems.* To help provide greater visibility for you as well as other drivers, this system offers added illumination to help keep you focused on the road. When the road ahead is clear, the system defaults to high-beam mode, then temporarily switches to low beams when it detects the headlamps or taillamps of vehicles ahead.

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
High-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control* uses radar and camera technology to help you maintain a preset speed and following distance from the vehicle ahead. If you get closer than the preset distance, the throttle is automatically reduced and the brakes may be applied. As soon as the road ahead clears, your Lexus returns to its preset speed.
All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control* includes additional functionality. Whether at highway speeds or in stop-and-go traffic, this more advanced system is designed to detect if you get closer than the preset distance and automatically slow your vehicle—even to a complete stop. Lexus Safety System+ 2.5* can go further by helping to detect an upcoming curve, and may lower your speed accordingly.

ROAD SIGN ASSIST
Exclusive to Lexus Safety System+ 2.0,* this system* uses a built-in camera to help provide road sign information in the instrument panel or, in the LS, even on the available Head-Up Display. In addition to displaying speed limit information, the system can alert you of certain detected signs you otherwise might have missed.
Prepared to Protect
Safety Connect
Lexus Enform Safety Connect* offers you peace of mind, knowing that assistance can be there when you need it most. Whether you're involved in a collision, your vehicle is stolen, or there is any other type of emergency, assistance can be sent directly to your vehicle's GPS location.
Airbags
Built for the people they protect, Lexus airbags* are so advanced, they're designed to detect the seat-track position of the driver and front passenger and deploy accordingly.
Visibility Systems
For increased awareness, Lexus vehicles offer numerous ways to help you see your surroundings. From backup cameras* with dynamic gridlines for parking and maneuvering, to available features like a Multi-Terrain Monitor* that offers a convenient under-vehicle view, or the bird's-eye perspective enabled by the four high-resolution cameras of the Panoramic View Monitor,* Lexus vehicles can help bring your surroundings into focus.
Innovations to change the future of driving
A world without accidents is what we envision. While our goals for safety are ambitious, so are the innovations we create to bring us closer to them.
