2017 Lexus RX 350 Safety Features in Chantilly, VA

SUVs are excellent family vehicles, and the 2017 RX 350 is no exception. At Pohanka Lexus of Chantilly, we like to think that this SUV stands out from the rest thanks to its exquisite list of standard safety features that will add peace of mind and confidence to every drive you take with your loved ones’ in tow. We’re passionate about safety, so give us a call at 703-592-4979 to speak with a friendly member of our staff about any of the features in the RX 350 any day of the week!

We operate under the notion that standard safety is the best kind of safety, and that’s why the RX 350 comes with such a long laundry list of features. Visibility is always a key part of staying safe, and the standard By-LED headlamps, LED foglamps, and daytime running lamps will cover you during rain or shine, on highway or country road. Vehicle Stability Control¹ and Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management² will both assist in keeping your vehicle stable and retaining the most traction everywhere you roam. And, should the worst happen, there are 10 standard airbags³ strategically placed throughout the cabin to protect the ones you love from as much of the collision as possible.

The hope is that you’ll never need to use, those, though, and that’s why every 2017 RX 350 comes with the Lexus Safety System+⁴, which boasts a suite of intuitive, responsive driver-assist features that lend a second pair of eyes 360-degrees around you. The intelligent high-beam headlamps⁵ make sure your path ahead is appropriately illuminated, and even dim to low-beams when a vehicle is approaching going the opposite direction — for your safety as much as theirs! The Lane Departure Alert⁶ with Steering Assist system is perfect for the long haul, especially for that moment that your attention slips from the road. Sensors on each side of the RX 350 detect the lines on the road and make sure that you stay on path! The All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control⁷ is always a commuter favorite, and, the crowning jewel, the Pre-Collision System⁸ with Pedestrian Detection⁹ is nothing short of a blessing for those unpredictable moments on the road.

1. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) is an electronic system designed to help the driver maintain vehicle control under adverse conditions. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Factors including speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all affect whether VSC will be effective in preventing a loss of control. See Owner’s Manual for details.

2. Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) is an electronic system designed to help the driver maintain vehicle control under adverse conditions. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Factors including speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all affect whether VDIM will be effective in preventing a loss of control.

3. All the airbag systems are Supplemental Restraint Systems. All airbags (if installed) are designed to inflate only under certain conditions and in certain types of severe collisions: Typically, frontal and knee airbags inflate in frontal collisions; side torso and side curtain airbags inflate in side collisions; and Roll-Sensing Curtain Airbags inflate at a severe roll angle or roll rate. To decrease the risk of injury from an inflating airbag, always wear seatbelts, sit upright in the middle of the seat as far back as possible and do not lean against the door. Do not put objects in front of an airbag or around the seatback. Do not use a rearward-facing child seat in any front passenger seat. The force of an inflating airbag may cause serious injury or death. See Owner’s Manual for further information/ warnings.

4. Drivers should always be responsible for their own safe driving. Please always pay attention to your surroundings and drive safely. Depending on the conditions of roads, vehicles, weather, etc., the system(s) may not work as intended. See Owner’s Manual for details.
