Default activating all speed dynamic radar cruise control

hi

I have a 2016 lexus nx 200t which is a Canadian version. the car has radar guided cruse control but it only activates for speed above 40km/h. I saw European version of the car (same model year) that supports all speed radar guided cruse control. So, i think my car is restricted due to some regulation in Canada and USA and it has all the hardware required for all speed cruse. So, does any body know how to eliminate the minimum speed restriction and activate the all speed cruse control??

thanks for your help

2015-2017 NX models in Canada that have radar cruise control are high speed only (work at 40km/h and above). In 2018, they changed it to full speed radar cruise control (works at all speeds). I don't believe there is any way of changing the high speed to a full speed radar cruise control.

I believe that your assumption that your NX has the same hardware as the European version is not correct. There have been multiple generations of the radar cruise control, and the 2015-2017 North American NX does not have the most recent version. The 2018 NX and most other 2018 Lexus models have the more recent version that allows for all-speed cruise control.

Actually i think they are similar. because the hardware that can perform on highway speeds can easily perform on traffic speeds.

Are you sure about the differebces?
