With the Lexus NX, drivers are on the safe side: Thanks to advanced assistance and safety systems, the premium SUV achieves five out of five possible stars, the best rating in the crash test of the independent testing organization Euro NCAP.

The new edition of the successful model, which is available as a full hybrid NX 350h and for the first time as a plug-in hybrid NX 450h+, impresses in all four test areas. In addition to the exceptional vehicle rigidity, which contributes significantly to the high level of passive safety, the third generation of the standard Lexus Safety System + is responsible.

Euro NCAP rates these assistance systems with an outstanding 91 percent – a top result. But the new Lexus NX also achieves an excellent 83 percent when it comes to protecting adult occupants, and even 87 percent when protecting children. There are also 83 percent for vulnerable road users.
