The Lexus lineup of SUVs are designed not just for luxury, but also for the rigours of driving in Canada. This includes the ability to dominate the road in any weather condition, from a perfect sunny summer day, to a blustery winter storm. However, you may be curious which Lexus SUV truly stands above the rest when it comes to capability in the winter. Read on with the experts here at Lexus Downtown as we run down our picks for the top five Lexus SUVs for the Canadian cold.
1. Lexus NX
Armed with an available electronic all-wheel drive system, adjustable drive modes, and a number of climate control options to keep you warm, the Lexus NX truly stands above the rest when it comes to winter driving. Standard heated seats and steering wheel will keep you comfortably warm on the coldest days, while the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 keeps you safe in the most adverse road conditions.
2. Lexus GX
The mid-size Lexus GX is a luxury SUV built to go off-road, and that means it’s more than capable of handling winter driving. It has standard four-wheel drive with active traction control, an off-road geared suspension system, and selectable drive modes for optimal traction in bad driving conditions. There’s few places the GX can’t take you, even in the worst winter can throw at you.
3. Lexus RX
If you’re interested in staying as comfortable as possible in the winter, the Lexus RX includes a number of features that may interest you. Not only does it offer a fine-tuned driving experience on any road surface, it offers many winter amenities such as heated seats and steering wheel, windshield wiper de-icer, and all-weather interior liners.
4. Lexus LX
The full-sized Lexus LX is safe and stylish, and equipped with winter-ready features such as heated front and rear seats and a heated steering wheel. The high-performance engine has the power you need to overcome many winter obstacles, along with 4WD with active traction control to help reduce slipping when the wheels are struggling for grip. Downhill assist control and Multi-Terrain Select round out the features in the LX which help it conquer any road condition, any time of year.
5. Lexus UXh
If you’re looking for something a little more efficient for winter drive, the Lexus UXh is absolutely an incredible option.
