The 7 Best Interior Features of the 2016 Lexus GS
The Best Features Provided Inside the Lexus GS
There are many reasons why one buys a Lexus, and sometimes the features just become perks. Lexus understands the importance of staying safe on the road, so they have created features with you in mind. Here are the best features in the 2016 Lexus GS that could possibly blow other features (or cars) out of the waters.
Enform and Remote
The greatest feature in any car is to be able to connect your phone to your car. This is obviously a safety feature, as you won't need to spend most of your time looking down while driving. The Enform App Suite allows you to access all of your phone's apps through the center console's display. It even has a voice recognition for extra safety.
Want more? The Enform Remote app will make it easier to lock/unlock doors and start your Lexus right from your phone. Still feel like that isn't good enough? Well, you can also check the fuel level, locate your car in a parking lot and get alerts of current speed (if and when it goes over the speed limit) when you lend your Lexus.
Heads-Up Display
Need even more of a reason not to look down while driving? The Heads-Up Display will project your speed, RPM and audio onto the windshield. While other people will still need to look downwards at their dashboard, you won't need to take your eyes off the road, but maybe just your concentration for a second or two.
A Safety System
Keeping yourself (as well as passengers) safe first and your vehicle safe secondary is important. Lexus understands that, and so their safety system combines plenty of features to make your rides stress-free. This package includes intelligent high-beam headlamps, all-speed dynamic radar cruise control, pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, as well as lane keep assist and lane departure alert with steering assist.
Two that pop out are the pre-collision system and lane assist features. The pre-collision feature will apply the brake assist to aid in braking before making an impact. The lane assist, on the other hand, will keep you from unintentionally driving into other lanes. With the included lane keep assist, you will be able to stay in the center of the lane.
Memory System
If you are not the only person who drives your Lexus GS, this is the perfect feature. You won't have constantly change the settings of your driver's seat, side view mirrors and the steering wheel when you get into the car. This feature will set it up to your specific settings.
Front-Seat Climate Concierge
A magical car is a car that caters to your needs, not a car that needs to be told. This is such feature (available in the luxury package) that will monitor and adjust the temperature in the front seat. Not only does this smart technology include the ventilation, but also the heated seats and steering wheel if you are equipped. This way you won't have to break concentration trying to get comfortable, your Lexus GS would already anticipate it and adjust accordingly.
Rear-Seat Climate and Audio Controls
This is a great feature to keep distractions at a minimal, and also available in the luxury package. The rear-seat climate and audio controls allow your passengers to access the ventilation system, audio, sunshade and the heated outboard seats. This way you don't hear any complaints that it is too cold in the back, or to turn up their favorite song. All you have to do is worry about getting to your destination.
Power Rear and Rear Door Sunshade
Available for both premium and luxury package, this special feature will keep the sun's rays at bay. At the push of a button you will be able to bring up the sunshade on the rear window, or manually bring down the rear door's windows. Thinking beyond the surface, this could also keep your interior from wearing.
