Comments

1.After LEXUS NX model were conducted four TNCAP impact tests, the results are as follows:


(1)For “Offset Deformable Barrier Frontal Impact Tests”, the driver and passengers have "Good" or "Adequate" protection in body parts.


(2)For “Full Width Frontal Impact Tests”, the driver and passengers have "Good" or "Adequate" protection in body parts. However, the dummy at rear seat was not effectively restrained by the seatbelt during the test, causing the pelvis slipped off the seatbelt, also known as submarining, and therefore the score for this part was deducted and rated as “poor” protection.


(3)For “Side Impact Mobile Deformable Barrier Tests”, all important body parts have "Good" protection and get full points.


(4)Under more severe test conditions of the “Oblique Pole Side Impact Tests”, all important body parts have "Good" or "Adequate" protection.


2.In the front seat and rear seat whiplash tests, the front seat and rear seat have "Good" protection for the occupant's neck.


3.This vehicle model has a standard-fit autonomous emergency braking system, which performed well with collisions avoided in all City test scenarios. Furthermore, whiplash performance of front seat was rated "Good" protection. Therefore, the AEB City system gets full points.

Comments

1.LEXUS NX only has a standard-fit speed limit information function, however it cannot recognize the speed limit signs, the traffic signs for time, weather, and vehicle categories. Therefore, this item was not awarded the points.


2.Both front and rear seats are equipped with a standard-fit seatbelt reminder, the system can detect occupant of front passenger seat, which effectively alerts driver through audiovisual warnings. Therefore, the system gets full points.


3.When the vehicle drifts from the driving lane, the lane support system can alert and automatically intervene to correct the driving direction to the original driving path. However, part of the functions of human machine interface do not meet the protocol. Therefore, the score for this item was deducted.


4.This vehicle model is equipped with a standard-fit autonomous emergency braking system, which is rated as "Good" protection in high-speed performance tests. However, part of the functions of human machine interface do not meet the protocol, the score for this item was deducted. In the 3 tests (Car-to-Car Rear Stationary of FCW, Car-to-Car Rear Moving of FCW and AEB, Car-to-Car Rear Braking of FCW and AEB), the vehicle performed well to avoid all collisions.
