Default Enform App Suite on Base Model Without Nav

Does the base model RX350 without navigation come with Enform Remote and the App Suite? I think the remote start is supposed to work for one year then stop. Do the apps (pandora, iheartradio, etc.) work for a year then stop or does that stay for the life of the vehicle? The price on the without Nav section doesn't even mention the app suite which is odd. Thanks!

Enform Safety Connect is standard on all RX, which allows the service for Enform Remote. There is only a one year trial, then you'll have to renew it for $219.95. You'll need the data connection through Safety Connect in order for Remote to work.

The Enform App Suite is only included on cars with Navigation. There is no subscription fee and can be used for the life of the car. The App Suite uses your smartphone for data.

I thought the app suite was standard on all 2016 models except the CT. That's kind of disappointing that they tied the apps to the navigation system.

I think the main reason that Lexus bundles the Enform App Suite with the navigation system is the interface to control it. The navigation system cars have the Remote Touch Interface (mouselike or touchpad controller), while the non-Nav cars use a knoblike controller.

Another reason to get the 12in navigation i guess. The 8in is looking a little spartan.
