Lexus - RX 400 - Sales Brochure - 2009 - 2009

09 RX LEXUS Anytime. anywhere. There are four seasons, thousands of cities and millions of miles of roads. Fortunately, there is one automobile for all of the above. Presenting the 2009 RX. Vehicle shown with available equipment. Whether traveling through the city or countryside, drivers will want to feel securely fastened to the road. The RX gratefully obliges by offering available all-wheel drive. It employs a viscous limited-slip center differential which redistributes torque and powers the front and rear wheels at appropriate speeds for improved traction. This, in combination with Vehicle Stability Control1 and an advanced drivetrain, helps provide enhanced handling and a tighter, more reliable grip on nearly any type of driving surface.

It continually monitors and varies intake and exhaust valve timing for greater power and instantaneous torque. It was developed in the same wind tunnel used to create the bullet train, resulting in one of the lowest drag coefficients in its class. And, not to be intellectually outdone, the RX 400h features the world’s first luxury hybrid system that seamlessly combines a gasoline engine and high-power electric motors. While the complex equations behind such impressive feats may not make much sense to the layman, rest assured, it will make perfect sense to your right foot.

Its available Rear-Seat Entertainment System features an LCD screen that’s a full nine inches across. The screen descends from the cabin ceiling and is complemented by a DVD player with a convenient remote control and two wireless headphones5 that allow for private listening. 8 Vehicle shown with available equipment. Power rear door Available roof rack systems6 40/20/40 split rear seat Optional multipanel moonroof The RX comes standard with a remote keyless entry to the power rear door. Just the touch of a button opens or closes the rear storage area and automatically retracts the tonneau cover for hands-free, effortless loading and unloading. The door responds with the key remote, from inside the vehicle with a switch on the instrument panel, or from a button on the door itself. Additionally, its movements are accompanied by a cautioning sound, and touch and motor sensors are designed to stop and reverse the movement if an obstruction is detected. An impressive show of power is now as simple as a flex of the fingertip. power lifter 10 Vehicle shown with available equipment. life guard Safety is always a priority at Lexus, and the RX is no exception. It features a driver’s dual-stage airbag7 designed to deploy at one of three speeds depending on factors such as crash severity and driver’s seat-track position. Similarly, the front passenger’s dual-stage airbag7 ingeniously uses both occupant-weight and crash-severity sensors to manage deployment. And when an emergency braking situation is detected, the Anti-lock Braking System with Brake Assist8 can help reduce stopping distance by automatically adding brake power if the driver fails to apply adequate pressure to the pedal. Of course, no safety measure is infallible, but it’s always comforting to know Lexus engineers are looking out for your well-being.

This vehicle is available in Classic Silver Metallic, Obsidian and new, exclusive Truffle Mica. It features special exterior badging and floor mats, exclusive 18-inch wheels, a unique chrome-finished grille and a color-keyed rear spoiler. This RX also comes in limited numbers to ensure a drive that’s never ordinary. Additionally, Lexus provides three different gift sets to help customize the RX to your own style: Callaway Golf Experience with personalized golf balls, Travel Package and Epicurean Encounter.

D i s c l a i m e r s AN D AC K NOW L E D GEMENTS 1. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) is an electronic system designed to help the driver maintain 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. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further details. 2. Ratings achieved using the required premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 or higher. If premium fuel is not used, performance will decrease. 3. Performance figures are for comparison only and were obtained with prototype vehicles by professional drivers using special safety equipment and procedures. Do not attempt. 4. Mark Levinson is a registered trademark of Harman International Industries, Inc. 5. Headphones are for passenger use only. Do not use while operating vehicle. 6. Accessory roof rack with rails not recommended for luggage. 7. All the airbag (“AB”) systems are Supplemental Restraint Systems. All ABs (if installed) are designed to inflate only under certain conditions and in certain types of severe collisions: frontal and knee ABs typically inflate in frontal collisions; side and side curtain ABs in side collisions; Roll-Sensing Curtain ABs at a severe tilt degree, roll or lateral G-force. In all other accidents, the ABs will not inflate. To decrease the risk of injury from an inflating AB, 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 AB or around the seatback. Do not use a rearward-facing child seat in any front passenger seat. The force of an inflating AB may cause serious injury or death. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further information/warnings. 8. Brake Assist is designed to help the driver take full advantage of the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake-system maintenance and tire and road conditions. 9. The Lexus Tire Pressure Monitor alerts the driver when tire pressure is critically low. For optimal tire wear and performance, tire pressure should be checked regularly with a gauge; do not rely solely on the monitor system. Please see your Owner’s Manual for details. 10. Pebble Beach,® Pebble Beach Resorts,® The Lone Cypress,™ The Heritage Logo, and their respective underlying distinctive images are trademarks, service marks and trade dress of Pebble Beach Company. Used under license. 11. Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) and Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) are electronic systems designed to help the driver maintain vehicle control under adverse conditions. They are not substitutes for safe driving practices. Factors including speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all affect whether VDIM or VSC will be effective in preventing a loss of control. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further details. 12. Based on 2008 EPA-combined mpg rating of gas/hybrid-powered vehicles. PAI Near Luxury Segmentation. Actual mileage will vary. 13. The RX 400h has 70% fewer smog-forming emissions than the average new vehicle. 14. Cargo and load capacity limited by weight and distribution. 15. Before towing, confirm your vehicle and trailer are compatible, hooked up and loaded properly and that you have any necessary additional equipment. Do not exceed any Weight Ratings and follow all instructions in your Owner’s Manual. The maximum you can tow depends on the total weight of any cargo, occupants and available equipment. 16. 2008 EPA MPG estimates. For model year 2008, the EPA has revised the way the estimated fuel economy rating is determined. 2009 EPA MPG estimates not available at time of printing. Actual mileage will vary. 17. The RX 400h is not designed to be driven off-road. 18. The Bluetooth® technology phones listed on lexus.com have been tested for compatibility with Lexus vehicles. Performance will vary based on phone software version, coverage and your wireless carrier. Phones are warranted by their manufacturer, not Lexus. 19. The Navigation System is designed to assist in locating an address or point of interest. Discrepancies may be encountered between the system and your actual location. Road system changes may affect the accuracy of the information provided. Rely on your common sense to decide whether to follow a specified route. Detailed coverage not available in every city or roadway. Periodic updates available at an additional cost. Please see your Navigation System Owner’s Manual for further details. 20. The backup camera, available only with the Navigation System, does not provide a comprehensive view of the rear area of the vehicle. You should also look around outside your vehicle and use your mirrors to confirm rearward clearance. Cold weather will limit effectiveness and view may become cloudy. 21. Continuous average power, all channels driven, at less than 0.1% THD; 20-20,000 Hz. 22. Dynamic Laser Cruise Control is designed to assist the driver and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving practices.
