201 0 L E X U S RX the pursuit of perfection. It’s a phrase we use a lot. But what exactly constitutes the perfect vehicle? It’s never a question we take lightly. Particularly when we set out to create the next generation of the RX—reinventing the vehicle that invented it all. We began with a philosophy that the driver should come before all else. That technology should learn people rather than the other way around. That only an innovative approach to performance can lead to revolutionary results. And that power, itself, can also be empowering. It was this philosophy that led us here—to the next benchmark of the category. This is the completely reinvented 2010 RX. And these are the pursuits that built it. 1. de  sign the pursuit of all for you Vehicle shown with available equipment. 2. INNOVATION the pursuit of the driver, connected 3.

DRIVERS OF THE 2010 LEXUS RX were more than just the ultimate destination of our design. They were the inspiration behind it. Every innovation—created to make driving more effortless and enjoyable. Every feature—designed to benefit the driver in some important way. From the versatility of a large cargo area,1 to the responsive performance of a completely redesigned suspension system, to state-of-the-art technology that puts the driver in total control of their surroundings. Each a different part of the driving experience. All essential. And just a few of the many ways the RX has raised the bar once again in the category it created more than a decade ago. It’s a vehicle filled with the only kind of advancements that matter— those that advance you. 4 Vehicle shown with available equipment. the pursuit of all for you technology that HELPs you focus on the road. Not the technology. 6 The RX was designed from the point of view that capability than the already advanced standard voice- technology is only as impressive as it is useful. After all, recognition system, allowing you to control many of the what good is having it if you can’t use it or get to it RX’s features using normal, everyday speech. And easily? That’s one of the reasons you’ll find innovations an available Remote Touch device placed where your within the cabin that are not only incredibly intuitive, right hand naturally rests operates similarly to a but readily accessible. The central display, for example, computer mouse, ensuring that most features within the is purposely located as close to eye level as possible RX are at fingertips’ reach. It’s the type of technology to help you keep your focus on the road ahead. An that the longer you use it, the more you’ll wonder how available voice command system offers even more you ever did without it before. The available Remote Touch device was ergonomically designed with a fingertip toggle pad and snap-to technology that allows you to easily move through logical menus of the RX’s features. Located centrally for your comfort and convenience, buttons on either side allow both the driver and front passenger to make selections. Vehicle shown with available equipment. IT OFFERS A UNIQUE APPROACH TO SEATING: YOURS. The front seats offer available customized heating and ventilation through zones that are distributed throughout the seatbacks and lower seat cushions. For optimal comfort, the amount of heat varies by the location of the zone. 8 Vehicle shown with available equipment. When equipped, the front seats’ lower cushions can be extended with the touch of a button for additional leg support—providing added comfort and helping to reduce leg fatigue. PERFECTLY SUITED FOR EVERY need. AND CINEMATIC PREFERENCE. The 2010 RX is a vehicle virtually without compromise. Should your rear passengers have decidedly different tastes in entertainment, an available dual-screen RearSeat Entertainment System enables two separate video sources to be watched at the same time.2 With seven-inch LCD screens conveniently located behind the front headrests, both systems are controlled with a single remote, feature wireless headphones3 and can be used as a DVD player, an audio player or game console. Nothing can handle a stretch of asphalt and your have even more usable cargo room in the cargo area.1 day-to-day needs quite like a double-wishbone Need additional space? The rear seats fold effortlessly suspension. It sounds a bit bizarre, we grant you, but with remote levers on either side of the rear-door it’s actually the main reason the cargo area1 in the RX opening. And, with a split-cargo-cover design, covered is as wide and expansive as it is. A new take on the items are easily within reach when the available power conventional double-wishbone design means you’ll rear door is raised.

Voice Command, available on the RX, enables you to place Bluetooth®7 phone calls and control climate, audio and select navigation functions using normal, everyday speech. LEXUS ENFORM4,5 WITH SAFETY CONNECT,4,6 available on the RX, enables you to upload destinations from your computer, connect to a live agent who can provide en-route navigation assistance, and request emergency services to be sent directly to your vehicle. For more information, please visit lexus.com/RX/enform. In automotive circles, much is made of feeling connected to the road. But what about feeling connected to the vehicle, itself? Certainly, even the most fervent gearhead would agree that merits just as much consideration. Take technology like an available Heads-up Display that projects information in front of you to help you keep your eyes focused on the road ahead. And steering wheel controls that enable you to operate many features without ever removing your hands from the steering wheel. Including a multifunction toggle button you can use to personalize up to 20 different functions—from interior illumination settings to door-locking preferences. And with available Lexus Enform®4,5 with Safety Connect,TM4,6 a 24-hour response-center agent can provide everything from en-route assistance finding top restaurants to getting help should something go wrong on the road. 16 Vehicle shown with available equipment. REMOTE TOUCH, available on the RX, enables the driver and front passenger to control climate, audio, navigation and personalization functions with a single mouse-like device. bluetooth AUDIO8 connects wirelessly to your compatible audio player, allowing you to control it through the vehicle’s interface. DEVELOPED FROM AN UNDERSTANDING THAT 100% OF OUR DRIVERS ARE HUMAN. AND 0% SOUND LIKE ROBOTS. Funny things, voice-recognition systems. While they’re clearly designed for the benefit of people, the speech they recognize is often anything but human. The voice command that is included with the available Navigation System9 in the RX, however, was designed around the way people naturally speak. More than 750,000 utterances reflecting a diverse sampling of ages and accents were captured in a variety of acoustic conditions and used in its development. One of the most thoroughly tested automotive voice-recognition system available, it can be used to control nearly every function within the interior from climate, to audio, to placing Bluetooth7 phone calls. All in the way you’d expect it to. If you say, “It’s too hot in here,” the climate control will automatically lower the temperature by four degrees. “Call Steve at work” will be met with just that. And, within the destination menu, if you say, “Show me Chinese restaurants,” the navigation screen will immediately display locations in your surrounding area. Offering even more capability than the already advanced standard voice-recognition system, the available voice command can be used to operate audio, available XM® Radio,9,10,11 select climate functions, Bluetooth7 calls, select navigation functions and available XM NAVWeather™9,11 and XM NAVTraffic®9,11 features. For a demonstration, please visit lexus.com/RX/voicecommand. 18 Vehicle shown with available equipment. SO INNOVATIVE, IT ALLOWS YOU TO DO WHAT MOST NAVIGATION SYSTEMS DO NOT: DRIVE. Available XM NAVTraffic9,11 provides real-time traffic, road construction and accident information. For a demonstration, please visit lexus.com/RX/navigation. Available XM NAVWeather9,11 provides continually updated weather information along your route. 20 Vehicle shown with available equipment. The available Heads-up Display projects navigation, speed and audio information onto the windshield. And because the windshield was specifically designed without a designated viewing box, the information can be positioned at different heights for your convenience. Navigation systems were developed with one purpose in mind: turn directions, speed and audio information can be projected to help you better navigate your vehicle. Why is it, then, that so onto the windshield in front of you. Of course, the capabilities many require you to divert your attention in order to use them? of the system are not limited to navigation alone. For the first The available Navigation System9 on the RX, on the other time on a utility vehicle, you can be informed of continually hand, was designed to help you focus on the road ahead. The updated weather conditions along your route. And, with real- display was purposely positioned to be within your line of time traffic updates, you can have the system reroute you sight. And, with an available Heads-up Display, simple turn-by- around road closures, accidents and congestion. NOT ALL TECHNOLOGY COMES FROM RESEARCH LABS. SOMETIMES IT’S FOUND ON CITY STREETS. To assist you with parking and when negotiating narrow passes, an available Wide-view Side Monitor system12 uses a camera built into the passenger-side mirror that can provide a view of the ground to the right of the RX at slow speeds or when in reverse. 22 Vehicles shown with available equipment. An available backup camera13 displays a wide-angled color view on the rearview mirror or on the available Navigation System9 screen whenever the RX is placed in reverse. The available intelligent high-beam headlamps14 on the RX operate in highbeam mode, providing greater visibility, until its sensors detect an oncoming vehicle or other vehicles traveling closely ahead. The headlamps will then automatically enter into low-beam mode until vehicles are no longer detected. For a demonstration, please visit lexus.com/RX/highbeams. With all due respect to R&D labs and think tanks, that can provide a view of objects behind you on the the best ideas aren’t only found inside conference rearview mirror or on the available Navigation rooms and corporate complexes. They’re often System9 display. With the available intelligent high-beam found out here in the real world. Where real drivers headlamps,14 we even figured out a way to improve drive. It was here we found inspiration for features the vision of other drivers on the road. If the headlamps like an available Wide-view Side Monitor system 12 detect oncoming traffic or vehicles traveling closely that uses a camera positioned underneath the ahead of you, they automatically switch from high passenger-side mirror to help take the guesswork beams to low beams. Once traffic clears, they return out of parking. And an available backup camera13 to high-beam mode for greater visibility. LISTEN TO YOUR FAVORITE BAND LIVE ON TOUR. OR IN YOUR POCKET. It used to be that the only way a truly dedicated fan could should you opt for the available USB port located conveniently prove their loyalty was by following their favorite band from within the center console, access and control of your entire city to city, crowded venue to crowded venue. How times music library is at your fingertips. To ensure the system’s sound have changed. With available XM Radio,9,10,11 exclusive is as flawless as it is advanced, a premium audio system was concerts and over 170 channels of music, sports, news designed specifically for the RX by a company that built its and entertainment can be heard from the comfort of the RX reputation creating six-figure home-audio systems. The result: interior. So much for sacrifice. A compatible Bluetooth an available 15-speaker Mark Levinson® Premium Surround portable audio player8 can even be accessed through the Sound Audio System15 that offers sound quality as close to a RX interface while remaining in your pocket or purse. And, live performance as you’re likely to find. The available 15-speaker Mark Levinson Premium Surround Sound Audio System15 uses 7.1-channel architecture to create a virtual sweet spot of sound that encompasses the entire interior. 24 Vehicle shown with available equipment. the pursuit of forward thinking 3. You don’t design a vehicle around a driver and then ignore their right foot. To the contrary, performance is one of the first places you begin. Which is why you’ll find the RX was completely redesigned with some of the most innovative performance technology we’ve ever developed. A uniquely designed doublewishbone rear suspension was created to help provide greater agility (a process that took no less than 30 separate tuning sessions to get it just right, we might add). The undercarriage was crafted with wind channels for optimal aerodynamics. And the engine, with 90% of its torque available at lower RPM, was outfitted with an intelligent six-speed sequential-shift automatic transmission for greater acceleration and response. All the while providing fewer emissions and greater fuel economy. Because when it comes to performance technology, there’s really only one way to handle curves: by staying ahead of them. 26 THE MOST TELLING PERFORMANCE TIMES AREN’T MEASURED IN SECONDS. THEY’RE MEASURED IN MILLISECONDS. By no means do we intend to discount the importance of 0-to-60 times. But, until every road is straight, flat and dry, they hardly tell the whole story. Take the available Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management16 system on the RX, for example. Utilizing a network of sensors that monitor everything from speed, to steering, to braking, the system can anticipate a loss of traction and help correct it before it occurs. All within a fraction of a second. The RX can even sense if Unlike conventional traction control systems that react once the vehicle’s footing is compromised, the available Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM)16 system on the RX uses a series of sensors positioned throughout the vehicle to help anticipate and correct for a loss of traction before it occurs. For a demonstration, please visit lexus.com/RX/VDIM. 28 Vehicle shown with available equipment. the wheels are braking on different surfaces—a wet road on the left and an icy shoulder on the right, for instance—and add steering torque to either side to help the driver account for the difference. weather can change in an instant. so we designed an all-wheel drive system to respond even faster. The Active Torque Control all-wheel drive (AWD) system can distribute up to 50% of the power from the front wheels to the rear based on input from a network of sensors that monitor and account for such factors as G–force, steering angle, vehicle speed, braking and road conditions. For a demonstration, please visit lexus.com/RX/AWD. 30 Vehicle shown with available equipment. On loose or slick surfaces, Lock mode can be used to distribute power evenly between the front and rear wheels to help improve traction. Once the vehicle reaches 25 mph, the mode is automatically disengaged. ACTIVELY SAFE FEATURE NO. 4: pre-collision system ( PCS ) 17 Utilizing advanced radar technology, the available Pre-Collision System (PCS)17 can detect an imminent frontal collision and, while retracting the seatbelts, automatically prepare Brake Assist19 to provide increased braking pressure the moment you forcibly step on the brake pedal. For a demonstration, please visit lexus.com/RX/PCS. IT OFFERS 20 ACTIVELY SAFE FEATURES THAT INCLUDE IMPRESSIVE ADVANCEMENTS IN INTUITION. 10° Water-repellent high-visibility front-door glass all-weather Mirror defoggers ACTIVELY SAFE FEATURE NO. 7: ADAPTIVE headlamps To help illuminate more of the road ahead in a curve, an available Adaptive Front Lighting System18 features a right headlamp that can rotate up to 10 degrees in a right turn and the left headlamp up to 15 degrees in a left turn.

PASSIVE SAFEty FEATURE: Front-seat active headrest 21 In the event of certain types of rear collisions, the driver’s and front passenger’s headrests are designed to move upward and forward to help reduce the severity of a whiplash injury. Passive safety feature: Reinforced pillar structure One of the outcomes of the 233 crash tests performed on the RX during development is a reinforced and overlapping pillar design that helps provide increased buckling strength and reduces the likelihood of deformation of the area around the pillars. Passive safety feature: CLASS-LEADING 10-Airbag SYSTEM 22 The new RX is equipped with front- and second-row side curtain airbags;22 dual-stage front, knee and side airbags22 for the driver and front passenger; and seat-mounted side airbags22 for the rear outboard passengers.

After all, while there are countless differences between this RX and the previous generation, the one thing that will never change is the priority that we place on safety. 32 Vehicle shown with available equipment. the pursuit of the power of h 4. It wasn’t so long ago that the words luxury and hybrid were considered mutually exclusive. The original RX Hybrid changed that. It introduced a new category and proved that conventional truisms were anything but. It proved that when technology and optimism combine, almost anything is possible. It couldn’t be more fitting then that the model that brought us the world’s first luxury hybrid is the one to change the category again with the completely reengineered RX 450h. It features a highly efficient gasoline engine that is unlike most in the world. Nearly every hybrid component was made more lightweight, and the entire system was made more intelligent for greater fuel efficiency and lower emissions. At the same time, its performance was enhanced with an intelligent shift-control system, a first for a hybrid. Unbelievable? That’s the power of optimism. That’s the power of h. lexus.com/hybrid 34 Vehicle shown with available equipment. PROGRESS JUST MADE PROGRESS. MORE FUEL-EFFICIENT ENGINE The gasoline engine on the 2010 RX Hybrid is able to convert more of the energy generated during combustion into mechanical energy than conventional engines. The result when part of the hybrid system—fewer emissions and greater fuel efficiency. EXHAUST HEAT-RECOVERY SYSTEM During startup, exhaust gasses are captured and used to help warm the gasoline engine. On cold days, this can significantly reduce the time it takes for the vehicle to reach a point where it can shut off the gasoline engine and function on battery power alone. ECO MODE When in the newly offered ECO mode, fuel efficiency is increased by automatically optimizing multiple systems to consume less energy and regulating the throttle response for more even acceleration. lexus.com/hybrid 36 Vehicle shown with available equipment. DRIVEN BY MULTIPLE SYSTEMS.

Case in point, Lexus engineers developed an entirely new component for the gasoline engine. Not for the purpose of efficiency. Or for performance. It was so the gasoline engine’s already subtle vibrations would be that much more imperceptible when it turns on and off while driving.

The Wide-view Side Monitor system does not provide a comprehensive view of the front-passenger side area of the vehicle. You should also look around outside your vehicle and use your mirrors to confirm clearance. Cold weather will limit effectiveness and view may become cloudy. 13. The backup camera 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. 14. The intelligent high-beam headlamps can help improve vision at night. However, conditions such as a dirty windshield, rapidly changing light conditions or hilly terrain will limit effectiveness so the driver may need to manually change the high beams from on to off. Please see your Owner’s Manual for details. 15. Mark Levinson is a registered trademark of Harman International Industries, Inc. 16. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) and Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) 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 VSC or VDIM will be effective in preventing a loss of control. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further details. 17. The Pre-Collision System is designed to help reduce the crash speed and damage in certain frontal collisions only. It is not a collision-avoidance system and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as speed, driver input and road conditions. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further information. 18. The Adaptive Front Lighting System can help improve vision at night. However, conditions such as dirty windshield, rapidly changing light conditions or hilly terrain will limit effectiveness so the driver may need to manually change the high beams from on to off. Please see your Owner’s Manual for details. 19. 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 brakesystem maintenance and tire and road conditions. 20. The 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. 21. Active headrests can help reduce the extent of whiplash in certain types of rear-end collisions. 22. 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. 23. iPod is a registered trademark of Apple Inc. All rights reserved. 24. 18-in and 19-in performance tires are expected to experience greater tire wear than conventional tires. Tire life may be substantially less than 15,000 miles, depending on driving conditions. 25. Coverage only available in the continental U.S. and Canada. Please see your Lexus dealer for details. 26. Continuous average power, all channels driven, at less than 0.1% THD; 20–20,000 Hz. 27. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is designed to assist the driver and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving practices. Please see your Owner’s Manual for important instructions and cautions. 28. 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. 29. The engine immobilizer is a state-of-the-art anti-theft system. When you insert your key into the ignition switch or bring a SmartAccess fob into the vehicle, the key transmits an electronic code to the vehicle. The engine will only start if the code in the transponder chip inside the key or SmartAccess fob matches the code in the vehicle’s immobilizer. Because the transponder chip is embedded in the key or SmartAccess fob, it can be costly to replace. If you lose a key or SmartAccess fob, your Lexus dealer can help. Alternatively, you can find a qualified independent locksmith to perform high-security key services by consulting your local Yellow Pages or by contacting www.aloa.org. 30. Roof rack with cross bars is not recommended for luggage. 31. Currently available PPO. Ask your Dealer Sales Consultant for vehicle application. 32. 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. 33. Performance figures are for comparison only and were obtained with prototype vehicles by professional drivers using special safety equipment and procedures. Do not attempt. 34. EPA-estimated mileage. Actual mileage will vary. 35. The RX 450h is not designed to be driven off-road. 36. The SmartAccess system may interfere with some pacemakers or cardiac defibrillators. If you have one of these medical devices, please talk to your doctor to see if you should deactivate this system. 37. Roof rack capacity is 165 lb. Please see your Owner’s Manual for details. 38. Cover stock is composed of 10% post-consumer waste. *Lexus strives to build vehicles to match customer interest, and thus they typically are built with popular options and option packages.
