The Lexus UX Hybrid Safety

Lexus has fitted the 2022 UX Hybrid with several crucial safety features, including:

• Adaptive cruise control- This technology comes in handy to ensure you don't get too close to the car in front
• Lane departure mitigation and a lane-keeping system- Lane departure mitigation comes into action when the vehicle moves out of the lane and you haven't engaged the turn signal. The technology automatically steers the car to keep it in the lane. The lane-keeping system also helps the vehicle to maintain its lane
• Forward collision mitigation- This technology helps to avoid collisions. It warns you when it detects high chances of a crash. It can also engage the brakes to prevent the situation.
