The 2025 Lexus IS series continues to lead the luxury sedan market, offering thrilling performance, elegant design, and cutting-edge safety technology. At Lexus of Lakeridge, we’re proud to introduce the Lexus Safety System + 2.5, now standard across all models in the 2025 IS lineup. This advanced suite of safety features is designed to provide peace of mind on every journey, regardless of road conditions.
The Lexus Safety System + 2.5 includes a range of enhancements to help prevent accidents, reduce driver fatigue, and offer unparalleled driving confidence. In this article, we’ll explore the key components of this safety system and highlight why it’s a game-changer for the 2025 Lexus IS.
What Is Lexus Safety System + 2.5?
Lexus Safety System + 2.5 is the latest iteration of the brand’s innovative safety suite. It builds on the strengths of its predecessor by introducing improved functionality and new features designed for real-world driving scenarios. Standard across all 2025 Lexus IS models, this system is tailored to provide drivers with an extra layer of protection on Canada’s diverse roadways.
Here are the core technologies included in Lexus Safety System + 2.5:
- Pre-Collision System (PCS): Enhancements to the Pre-Collision System now allow for better pedestrian and cyclist detection, even in low-light conditions. The system uses a combination of radar and camera technology to anticipate potential collisions and alert the driver or apply braking if necessary.
- Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC): This adaptive cruise control system maintains a safe following distance from the vehicle ahead and is now optimized for smoother operation, especially during heavy traffic.
- Lane Tracing Assist (LTA): LTA works in conjunction with DRCC to help keep the vehicle centred in its lane. The system makes subtle adjustments to the steering to maintain alignment, especially on winding or uneven roads.
- Road Sign Assist (RSA): Using an intelligent camera, RSA recognizes road signs and displays the information on the driver’s dashboard, ensuring you’re always aware of speed limits and other critical signs.
- Automatic High Beams (AHB): The system switches between high and low beams based on surrounding traffic, improving visibility without distracting other drivers.
How It Benefits You
Canada’s road conditions are as varied as its landscapes. From icy winter highways to bustling city streets, the Lexus Safety System + 2.5 provides features that are not only innovative but practical for Canadian drivers:
- Enhanced Low-Light Performance: Many Canadian roads are poorly lit, especially during long winters. The improved pedestrian and cyclist detection ensures safety even in challenging visibility conditions.
- Adaptive Driving for Every Terrain: Whether navigating snowy roads in British Columbia or rain-slicked highways in Ontario, the Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and Lane Tracing Assist keep you steady and secure.
- Driver Assistance for Long Distances: Road trips across the Prairies or through Quebec’s countryside are more relaxing with features like Lane Tracing Assist and Road Sign Assist, which reduce driver fatigue and ensure compliance with local traffic rules.
Standard Across All 2025 Lexus IS Models
One of the most impressive aspects of the Lexus Safety System + 2.5 is that it comes standard across all 2025 Lexus IS grades. Whether you opt for the IS 300 AWD Premium or the exhilarating IS 500 F SPORT PERFORMANCE, you’ll receive the same comprehensive suite of safety features.
