LS

REAR PRE-CRASH SAFETY

The intelligent rear pre-crash safety technology features a millimetre-wave camera installed in the rear bumper. It operates whether the LS is stationary or in motion.

If the camera detects a vehicle approaching dangerously fast from behind, the system immediately calculates the risk of impact and continuously monitors the situation. If a rear collision is deemed unavoidable, the system immediately activates the pre-crash intelligent front headrests.

The headrests move upward by up to 60 mm, and forward by up to 25 mm. This helps cushion the occupant’s head in anticipation of the imminent impact, thereby greatly reducing the risk of whiplash injury.

Rear Pre-Crash Safety is an integral element of the LS’s optional Advanced Pre-Crash Safety system.
