“Start Your Engines”Remote Engine Start Value StoryYou know what it’s like to climb into a vehicle on an extremely cold or warm day

— you want to make the interior temperature more comfortable as quickly as

possible.

With the available Remote Engine Start, you can start the engine before you climb

into the vehicle and activate such features as the air conditioner, heater and

windshield defogger, as well as heated and ventilated front seats.

For added convenience, you can even use the system to pre-program the climate

control and seat settings so your vehicle is ready and waiting for you with the

desired temperature settings. An added plus—Remote Engine Start is seamlessly

integrated with your vehicle’s keyless entry system so there is no need to carry an

additional remote fob.

Lexus Premium Seats

Lexus Premium Seat Design•Optimum comfort and support• Easy-to-operate manual and power adjustments• Available heated and ventilated front seats on most models• Available memory settings

– Seat position– Side mirrors– Steering column

Advanced Fabrics and Seat Trim• Luxurious perforated semi-aniline leather• Eco-conscious NuLuxe™ seat trim

“Preferred Seating”Lexus Premium Seats Value StoryOne of the most important ways Lexus helps ensure that your comfort is through

advanced seat design and features. Whether operated through power controls or

manually, Lexus models feature seats that are specially contoured for excellent

support and comfort.

Depending on the model, you can enjoy heated and ventilated seats as well as a

climate control feature that automatically adjusts the seat temperature to

maintain the ideal temperature setting.

In addition to multiple seat adjustments, Lexus also offers a variety of upholstery

and fabrics that feel as good as they look. Lexus offers superior quality perforated

semi-aniline leather. This extremely soft leather is dyed all the way through, unlike

the conventional surface dyeing process, for improved durability and appearance.

“Preferred Seating”Lexus Premium Seats Value Story (cont.)A few Lexus models are also now available with NuLuxe™ interior upholstery. It’s

an eco-conscious alternative to genuine leather that weighs less, which helps

reduce overall vehicle weight. In addition, no Volatile Organic Components (VOC)

or metal dies are used in the manufacturing process. During the manufacturing

process, it also reduces C02 output by 65% over genuine leather.

“Bright Lights”Lexus Headlamp Design Value StoryNight driving demands good visibility, which is why Lexus has put so much thought

and effort into headlamp design. High-Intensity Discharge (HID) Headlamps

provide excellent illumination on even the darkest nights. The bulbs produce a

brighter light, with a longer and wider reach than conventional headlamps. And

while they operate at a considerably higher voltage, they also consume less

electricity. HID headlamps include the added convenience of an auto-leveling

system to help reduce glare from oncoming vehicles and maintain an optimum

position in relation to the road’s surface.

Lexus also offers the enhanced performance of light-emitting diode headlamps

which reduce energy consumption even further, have a longer life expectancy and

illuminate a greater area than conventional bulbs. In addition to auto-leveling, LED

headlamps offer the added convenience of headlamp washers.

“Bright Lights”Lexus Headlamp Design Value Story (cont.)Because conventional headlamps have certain limitations, Lexus engineers also

developed an Adaptive Front Lighting System. Available on select Lexus models,

this innovative headlamp system points the headlamps toward the inside of the

corner when turning. In a sense, it enables the driver to “see” around corners. The

system operates automatically and includes auto-leveling.

Various Lexus models also offer the convenience of Intelligent High Beams. They

automatically switch to low beams when the system senses an oncoming vehicle.

Once the vehicle has passed, the system switches them back to high beams.

Agenda


Lexus Electrochromic Auto-Dimming Mirrors

Electrochromic Auto-Dimming Mirrors• Two sensors in mirror detect glare and automatically dim mirror• Enhanced driver comfort and visibility• Available on interior rearview and side mirrors

“Eliminate Glare”Electrochromic Auto-Dimming Mirrors Value StoryYou know what it feels like to be driving at night and have to contend with the

headlight glare from the vehicle traveling behind you. An electrochromic auto-

dimming mirror is specifically designed to detect glare from behind the vehicle and

automatically “dim” the mirror effect to prevent bright lights from being reflected

into the eyes of the driver.

Electrochromic auto-dimming mirrors are designed to improve safety and driver

comfort by reducing this glare automatically—and many Lexus vehicles are

available with electrochromic auto-dimming mirrors both on the inside rearview

mirror and the external side mirrors.

Agenda


Lexus Power Windows

Unique Power Window Features• Electric drive motor slows the closing and opening of power windows• Forms a tighter seal• Reduces interior noise• Promotes durability and longer life

“Special Window Treatment”Power Windows Value StoryLexus power windows operate in much the same manner as a traditional power

window, but with a unique Lexus touch.

As the lift mechanism approaches the top and bottom of the window travel, the

electric drive motor slows down to minimize pressure on both the window seals

and on the window winder mechanism. In this way, the window seal will retain a

better quality seal which, in turn, means a quieter ride and longer life.

This is another detail that shows the traditional Lexus approach to quality,

durability and longevity.
