The user manual shows that the navigation system is able to retreive the traffic information using HD FM radio waves.
In the facts, it does not at all.
For long trips I still use my old garmin that warns me of traffic ahead or even calculates alternative routes using that info.
I was expecting this feature considering the extra to pay to get the system. My garmin has cost 300$...

It may not be as nimble and smart as my Garmin but routing logic seems to take traffic data into account.

Yes, it occurs in all Lexus vehicles, the model has nothing to do with it. And often the information doesn't really apply to your route, sometimes it does.
