Your Guide to Lexus Connected Services and Remote Safety

The Lexus Connected Services ecosystem transforms how you interact with your vehicle, putting unprecedented control directly at your fingertips. This comprehensive suite of digital features enhances your driving experience through intelligent connectivity that prioritizes convenience, safety, and vehicle maintenance.


With the Lexus App as your command center, you gain access to a robust network of services designed to streamline your ownership experience. From remote vehicle access to emergency assistance and maintenance alerts, these connected technologies deliver practical benefits that integrate seamlessly into your daily routine.


Remote Connect Capabilities


Remote Connect technology gives you command over your Lexus from virtually anywhere. Using the Lexus App on your smartphone, you can lock or unlock doors without fumbling for keys—perfect for those moments when your hands are full or you can't remember if you secured your vehicle. 


Select models offer remote engine start/stop functionality, allowing you to pre-condition your cabin temperature before entering your vehicle. This feature proves especially valuable during extreme weather conditions, ensuring your Lexus maintains an ideal temperature before you step inside.


Safety Connect Protection


Safety Connect provides critical assistance when you need it most. The integrated Emergency SOS function connects you with live support at the push of a button, offering peace of mind during unexpected situations. 


Using your vehicle's built-in cellular and GPS technology, the system pinpoints your exact location and dispatches appropriate assistance—whether you're dealing with a flat tire, mechanical issue, or collision. This 24/7 service ensures help arrives quickly, reducing stress during roadside emergencies and potentially critical situations.


Service Connect Advantages


Maintaining your Lexus in optimal condition becomes significantly easier with Service Connect. The system generates on-demand vehicle health reports that keep you informed about your vehicle's status, allowing you to address potential issues before they escalate.


Maintenance alerts notify you when service intervals approach, helping you schedule appointments at appropriate times. This proactive approach to vehicle care not only extends the lifespan of your Lexus but also helps preserve its performance characteristics and resale value over time.


Drive Connect Integration


Drive Connect elevates your navigation and voice command capabilities through cloud-based technology. The system includes Destination Assist for finding locations and Cloud Navigation that provides real-time traffic information and map updates, ensuring you always travel the most efficient route.


The Intelligent Assistant responds to natural voice commands, allowing you to search for destinations, check weather conditions, or dictate text messages while keeping your focus on the road. The system even incorporates Google star ratings for points of interest, helping you make informed decisions about your destinations.


Multimedia Connectivity


Your Lexus seamlessly integrates with your digital lifestyle through wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. These features allow you to access your favorite smartphone applications directly through your vehicle's display without the hassle of cables.


SiriusXM rounds out the entertainment options, delivering ad-free music, sports, news, and comedy programming both inside and outside your vehicle. This comprehensive approach to connectivity ensures your digital preferences travel with you regardless of which platform you prefer.
