2011 Lexus RX Hybrid for Sale in Carson City
Just a few of the systems that answered this challenge: a gasoline engine that works differently from conventional engines to convert more of the energy generated during combustion into mechanical energy; a hybrid battery that is exceptionally light and compact; an Exhaust Gas Optional equipment shown. Recirculation system that captures, cools and reuses a portion of the exhaust gasses, reducing emissions and improving fuel efficiency; and an ECO Driving Indicator Zone Display that provides real-time feedback of economical driving practices.
The RX 450h is the first hybrid vehicle to feature Intelligent Shift Control, an intelligent shifting system that can estimate whether you are traveling uphill or downhill and automatically select the appropriate gear ratio for better engine response. Enhancing performance even further, a sequential-shift mode enables you to up-shift or downshift on the fly, helping to provide greater responsiveness and maneuverability coming out of corners.
General Overview
The safest accident is the one that never happens. Which is why the RX offers a variety of innovative measures to help prevent one from occurring. Should an accident be unavoidable, we’ve helped plan for that, too. Two hundred and thirty-three crash tests were performed on the RX during development—leading to such passive safety measures as an overlapping pillar design that helps provide increased buckling strength and enhanced load sustainability when buckled.
To help provide optimal visibility, we even figured out a way to improve the vision of other drivers on the road. In addition to the available Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS), the RX offers available intelligent high-beam headlamps.18 If their sensors detect oncoming traffic or vehicles traveling closely ahead of you, they automatically switch from high beams to low beams. And, once traffic clears, they return to high-beam mode for greater visibility.
Additional Features
Call it a state-of-the-art inkling, if you will. Utilizing highly advanced radar technology, the available Pre-Collision System can sense an unavoidable frontal collision and automatically retract the front seat-belts while preparing Brake Assist for increased braking pressure when the driver steps on the brake pedal. It’s just one of the Actively Safe features offered on the RX. Of course, if impact does occur, you can also take comfort in knowing that the RX features a host of passive safety measures as well. Like a class-leading 10-airbag system and active front headrests that can move diagonally upward and forward in the event of certain types of rear collisions to assist in supporting the head, thereby helping to reduce the severity of whiplash-type injuries.
