For the 2024 model year, Lexus is adding a plug-in hybrid version of its popular RX SUV. With this new SUV, the Lexus RX 450H+,  you'll get the same luxury and power you've come to expect from Lexus while saving gas thanks to its hybrid powertrain. To help you decide if this is the vehicle for you, below is everything you need to know about the new 2024 Lexus RX 450H+. 2024 Lexus RX 450H+ Exterior Styling The exterior of the Lexus RX 450H+ is long and slender, giving this SUV a more aerodynamic look. There are bold contours on the hood and near the wheels, which add to its unique appearance, while the front grille is like none you've ever seen before. An array of color options allow you to get a 450H+ that fits your style. The available colors include: Eminent White Pearl. Cloudburst Gray. Iridium. Caviar. Matador Red Mica. Copper Crest. Nori Green Pearl. Nightfall Mica. 2024 Lexus RX 450H+ Performance Under the hood of the 2024 Lexus RX 450H+, you'll find its hybrid powertrain. This powertrain uses a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine along with three electric motors. These four units combine to deliver 304 horsepower and can accelerate the 450H+ from zero to 60 mph in about 6.2 seconds. While many people believe that opting for a hybrid vehicle means sacrificing power and acceleration, the 450H+ is proof that this isn't the case. The 2024 Lexus RX 450H+ also comes standard with all-wheel drive. The electronically controlled, full-time all-wheel-drive system delivers a sport-like driving experience and gives the vehicle more stability on tougher road surfaces.

The EPA rates the 2024 Lexus RX 450H+ at 35 mpg combined when running on hybrid power and 83 MPGe when including electric driving. One of the reasons for this excellent fuel efficiency is the all-electric driving range of 37 miles, during which the 450H+ doesn't need to use any gasoline. You'll also get a Level 1 charging cable that you can use with standard 120-volt outlets. This means you won't need any additional hardware to charge your 450H+ at home or through public charging stations. However, if you install a Level 2 charging port at home or find one on the road, you'll be able to charge your vehicle faster. With a Level 2 charging station, you can fully recharge the battery in about two and a half hours. 2024 Lexus RX 450H+ Interior Space Inside, you'll quickly notice the streamlined and modern design of the cabin. All the controls and information you need are easily within reach, and the forward sight lines give you more visibility while driving. Both you and your passengers will appreciate the ample amount of space inside — even taller passengers will have enough space in the rear section of the cabin. The 450H+ comes with perforated semi-aniline leather throughout the interior, which makes for a more comfortable and stylish ride.

This system uses a technology called Quantum Logic Surround to deliver a full-bodied audio experience throughout the cabin. With it, you'll enjoy your favorite music even more every time you get behind the wheel of your new Lexus. 2024 Lexus RX 450H+ Safety There's a wide range of standard safety features included with the 450H+, helping to ensure that you stay safe while you're on the road.

This new model packs powerful performance into a sleek design, all while giving drivers and passengers a luxurious driving experience. Below is an overview of the 2024 Lexus ES to help you decide if it's the right choice for you. 2024 Lexus ES Exterior Styling The exterior of the 2024 Lexus ES features a sleek and dynamic style that you're sure to love. The ES uses a coupe-like style that it inherited from the popular Lexus LS, along with the Lexus signature grille and bi-LED headlamps.

Doing so gives both the exterior and the interior a seamless appearance and plenty of natural light. The 2024 Lexus ES is also available with a number of wheel designs, allowing you to pick the ones that you like best. Finally, to customize your ES further, there are 11 exterior color options available, including: Cloudburst Gray. Obsidian. Eminent White Pearl. Sunlit Green. Nightfall Mica. Matador Red Mica. Ultra White and Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0 are also available if you select one of the F SPORT trims of the 2024 Lexus ES, such as the Lexus ES 350 F SPORT Design. 2024 Lexus ES Interior Comfort Inside the 2024 Lexus ES, you'll find a cabin that's built around the driver's comfort, while still providing plenty of space for passengers. You'll immediately notice the streamlined instrument panel, which makes it easy to adjust vehicle settings on-the-go. The cabin also features high-quality materials throughout, whether it's the plush seats or the smooth trim. You'll appreciate the quiet cabin and comfortable driver's seat, which make highway driving around San Jose, California, more enjoyable. The 2024 Lexus ES also features plenty of interior space. Even taller passengers in the rear seats have plenty of leg room. As for cargo space, there's 17 cubic feet of it in the trunk, which is more than some of this sedan's rivals. All in all, you and your passengers can expect an enjoyable experience when you're inside the 2024 Lexus ES, even if you're in the car for an extended period of time. 2024 Lexus ES Performance and Fuel Efficiency One of the biggest benefits of getting a 2024 Lexus ES is the choice of powertrains. There are three options available, with each delivering a high-quality driving experience. The base model comes with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 203 horsepower and comes standard with all-wheel drive. Moving up to the ES 350 trim gives you a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that produces 302 horsepower. Then there's the ES 300h, which is a hybrid powertrain. This model produces 215 horsepower, thanks to its combination of gas engine and electric motor. Since there are three different powertrains, that means your fuel efficiency will vary depending on what you select. With the base model, expect to get around 25 mpg in the city and 34 mpg on the highway. Opting instead for the ES 350 changes these estimates to 22 mpg and 32 mpg, respectively. And, as you'd expect, the hybrid performs the best in terms of fuel efficiency, coming in with estimates of 43 mpg in the city and 44 mpg on the highway. With these three primary options available, you can choose a setup based on your personal preferences when it comes to power, fuel efficiency, and cost. 2024 Lexus ES Technology With the latest Lexus ES model, you'll also get the latest technology. It all starts with the standard 8-inch touch-screen infotainment display (12.3-inch model available), which you'll find in the center of the dashboard. Through this touch screen, you can easily play your favorite music, audio books, or podcasts, thanks to Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integrations. You can also load your preferred navigation app to help you get around. All of your audio plays through a 10-speaker audio system, which delivers a high-quality sound experience in the entire cabin. Other tech features you'll find in the new 2024 Lexus ES include: SiriusXM satellite radio. Amazon Alexa compatibility. Bluetooth streaming. Scout GPS Link navigation. A Wi-Fi hotspot. 2024 Lexus ES Safety Features Finally, the 2024 Lexus ES features many of the latest safety innovations. Each model comes standard with Lexus' Safety System+ 2.5.

As the smallest vehicle in the Lexus lineup, the 2024 UXh might strike you as an unexpected candidate for the hybrid SUV category.

This petite powerhouse embodies all the key features and capabilities you'd expect from an SUV. It checks all the right boxes as an upscale gas-electric crossover. Its robust engine, stylish design, and admirable performance ensure you'll love driving the 2024 UXh in San Jose, California. Read as our Lexus of Stevens Creek team takes a closer look at the 2024 UXh so you can see if it's worth adding to your shortlist of hybrid Lexus SUVs. Trim Levels and Pricing The Lexus UXh SUV is available in four distinct trim levels: the UX 250h, UX 250h Premium, UX 250h F SPORT Design, and UX 250h F SPORT Handling. Each offers varying luxury and technology levels, so you can customize your UXh experience to suit your needs. Here's a quick look at the offerings for each trim: UX 250h: With a starting MSRP of $36,690, the standard UX comes with a robust equipment suite, including the Lexus Safety System+ 2.5, eight-way power front seats, Smart Access keyless entry, wireless Apple CarPlay integration, wireless Android Auto compatibility, and heated side mirrors. UX 250h Premium: The Premium trim costs more than the base UX and will set you back $39,150. It adds to the standard model with features such as a hands-free power liftgate, rain-sensing wipers, heated and ventilated front seats, a moonroof, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. UX 250h F SPORT Design: The F SPORT Design starts at the same price as the Premium trim but adds unique styling and sporty elements while relegating some of the Premium's standard equipment to the options list. Standard features include 18-inch F SPORT wheels, LED fog and cornering lights, auto-leveling headlights, and a black roof. UX 250h F SPORT Handling: If you want the best performance the UX offers, the F SPORT Handling is an ideal choice. At $44,120, this trim builds on the F SPORT Design and adds even more sporty elements, such as an Active Variable F SPORT-tuned suspension with adaptive shock dampers and two new Drive Mode Select modes: Sport S and Sport S+. Exterior The exterior design immediately commands attention with its sculpted contours, assertive grille, and eye-catching LED headlights, making a big statement on the road. The optional 18-inch alloy wheels further enhance the streamlined silhouette. Around the back, the edgy rear bumper is sure to draw the eye. Wraparound LED taillights add a modern touch, with the rear spoiler adding an extra flair of sportiness to the overall look. The F SPORT model takes exterior styling to another level with distinctive front and rear bumpers, a dramatic black roof, and matching black roof rails. A selection of innovative paint colors allows you to make your UXh unique. Performance On the performance front, the Lexus UXh is the ideal companion for your daily San Jose commute. The standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine delivers 181 horsepower and 152 lb-ft of torque. It pairs with two electric motors and a continuously variable automatic transmission, giving you plenty of power for the road. You can choose between front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, depending on your needs. Either way, you'll have smooth and responsive handling. Fuel Efficiency and Eco-Friendly Features As we inch closer to an eco-friendly, sustainable future, fuel-efficient and low-emission vehicles are taking center stage. The Lexus UXh is leading the charge in its class with an impressive standard fuel economy of 43 mpg in the city and 41 mpg on the highway. Such efficiency is thanks to its advanced hybrid powertrain system and eco-friendly features. The EV drive mode enables you to save fuel by running the car on battery power alone for short distances and at low speeds, making it ideal for trips through parking garages and other stop-and-go situations. The UXh also comes with an ECO mode, which helps maximize efficiency by adjusting the engine's power output and providing further tweaks, such as a deceleration feature, to reduce fuel wastage. Regenerative braking is another great feature that maximizes the UX Hybrid's efficiency. With the help of a small nickel-metal hydride battery pack, the brakes capture and store energy when you use them. The Lexus UXh is an excellent choice if you want to reduce your carbon footprint while still enjoying the high-end luxury of a Lexus. Interior The interior of the Lexus UXh is a sumptuous affair. Everything shows the Lexus brand's attention to detail, from plush seating materials to a well-crafted dashboard. The cabin is noticeably spacious for a vehicle of its size, and the eight-way power-adjustable front seats ensure maximum comfort. The standard interior features NuLuxe synthetic leather upholstery, while the F-SPORT package adds perforated leather trim on the steering wheel and shift knob. The Washi interior trim looks like Japanese paper grain and is a unique touch that adds to the UXh's luxurious aesthetic. Aluminum pedals and front door-sill scuff panels complete the look. Infotainment and Connectivity The Lexus UXh has various technology features, including an 8-inch infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, four USB ports, and a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot. To enhance your driving experience further, you can opt for the upgrade package, which features a larger 12.3-inch touch screen, built-in navigation, wireless charging, and an eight-speaker premium audio system.

The Lexus GX, a luxury midsize SUV with a truck-like formidability and off-roading capability, has looked more or less the same since 2017, but that changes with the 2024 model year. Now it sits on the GA-F platform that Lexus introduced in 2022 and shows off a new bolder look with its squared-off lines and imposing stance. Its exterior appeal also hints at the rugged sophistication of its interior qualities, which help to create an enjoyable and luxurious driving experience. Let's examine the interior features of the 2024 Lexus GX as well as other characteristics that may interest you. Interior Dimensions As of mid-July 2023, Lexus has yet to release official interior specifications for the 2024 GX, but there are some preliminary exterior specs we can compare with previous model years to get a sense of what to expect. At 197.04 inches long, 83.22 inches wide, and at least 75 inches high, the body of the 2024 Lexus GX is considerably larger than that of the outgoing model, which measured approximately 192, 74, and 74 inches, respectively. Seeing as the outgoing model had an interior capacity of 141.3 cubic feet, as well as a legroom split of about 42 and 34 inches in the front and rear, we can assume that the upcoming GX will be even more generous in the space department. New Cars For Sale in San Jose, CA Interior Design The official statement from Lexus is that the 2024 GX has a "calming, lux, and modern interior space." The design philosophy for the '24 GX was to balance the "tough exterior" of the off-roader with a more serene, yet still rugged, cabin. Hence the earth-tone color palette, as well as the premium touches like, semi-aniline leather, ar NuLuxe-trimmed interior, and Ultrasuede accents. The specific color and material options should vary depending on your choice of trim. Seating The Lexus GX can seat five to seven people across two to three rows. The exact seating capacity depends on the trim that you choose. The Premium and Luxury trims, along with their Plus versions, are available with two or three rows, while the range-topping Overtrail versions are strictly five-seat, two-row affairs. Should you opt for a three-row model, you have a couple of additional choices to make. One is between a standard second-row 60:40 split-bench seat or captain's chairs. The former gets you the maximum seven-seat capacity, while the latter reduces the capacity to six. The other choice is between power or manual seat configurations for the third row. Storage and Cargo As we mentioned, the 2024 Lexus GX is set to be noticeably larger than previous models in the line. Based on what Lexus has revealed so far, the added interior space translates to increased utility and cargo space as well. You'll find that there's more storage space in the center console and the door pockets. Around the cabin are 12 cupholders, which is double the number of seats in the three-row captain's-chair configuration. Using the 2024 GX for long-haul traveling should present few to no problems as far as luggage goes. Both the two- and the three-row configurations have more cargo space than in past models. To illustrate, Lexus states the vehicle can store up to five suitcases with the third row folded down. Those transporting larger loads should be happy to find additional storage spaces under the cargo area as well. Technology and Connectivity The 2024 Lexus GX comes equipped with the latest and greatest in vehicle technology. In the center dash is a 14-inch multimedia touchscreen with Lexus Interface technology. Lexus Interface includes Intelligent Assistant, which allows you to control certain features with voice commands. Just saying the words "hey, Lexus" activates the assistant, with which you can access the navigation function, your music, your phone, and the climate control. The in-cabin tech also includes a 12.3-inch digital driver display, wireless Apple CarPlay integration, and Android Auto compatibility. Of note, Lexus has designed the interior of the 2024 GX with the driver in mind, and it shows in some of the tech choices. One is the decision to use physical dials for the cooling/heating system as well as for the audio volume — a conscious veering away from touchscreen controls that drivers have long found impractical while operating a vehicle. Another is the concentration of off-roading controls near the gear shifter, a placement intended to minimize driver distractions. You also get a 10-speaker premium surround-sound system, which comes standard. If you wanted, though, you could upgrade the sound system to a 21-speaker Mark Levinson surround-sound arrangement. And for passengers' personal devices, there are four to six illuminated charging ports throughout the cabin, plus the option for wireless charging. Safety Riding in the 2024 Lexus GX is also about staying safe. To that end, every '24 GX comes with an infotainment system integrated with Standard Lexus Safety Systems+ 3.0, a comprehensive suite of active safety and driver-assist features that include, but aren't limited to: Pre-collision system with pedestrian detection: Helps to detect vehicles, cyclists, motorcyclists, and pedestrians, providing automatic emergency braking when necessary All-speed dynamic radar cruise control: An adaptive cruise control system used on highways to maintain a preset distance from the vehicle in front of you Lane-tracing assist: Uses the lines on the road, as well as other vehicles, to help keep your vehicle centered in your lane Proactive driving assist: Uses the vehicle's camera and radar to initiate gentle braking or steering when necessary, such as when riding into curves or for controlling the distance between you and others on the road Want To Learn More About the All-New 2024 Lexus GX?

As winter approaches, you'll want to start prepping your vehicle for inclement weather. The National Highway Traffic Administration recommends several steps to prepare for winter driving. These include having an emergency kit in your vehicle, ensuring that your windshield wipers are in top shape, and replacing your summer tires with snow or winter tires. Having specialized snow tires made by a reputable tire brand installed on your Lexus can give you peace of mind that you'll have grip and stopping power when you need it most while driving on snowy and icy roads when the temperature plummets. What Are Snow Tires? Snow or winter tires are specialized tires designed to grip snowy, icy, or slushy roads, which may occur when the temperature falls below 45 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Tire manufacturers use a different type of tread rubber called hydrophilic (water-loving) rubber for winter tires. This type of rubber stays soft and flexible during cold weather and grips the road's surface more readily than summer or all-season tires. Winter tires also have a different tread design than all-season tires. Snow tires have larger grooves between the lugs, which are irregularly shaped parts of the tire tread pattern. The tread depths are deeper on winter tires, and you'll find more slots and sipes (tiny slits) that can more easily bite into the edges of ice and snow. The tread rubber on winter tires helps with extra traction and grip on snowy or icy roads; the deep tread patterns help the tire dig deeper into the snow and ice, while sipes and slits help channel water out and away from the tire. This combination helps you control your Lexus when driving on unpredictable winter roads. Even if your Lexus has all-wheel or four-wheel drive, you'll get optimum grip, stopping power, and performance when you have winter tires installed. When Is the Best Time To Switch to Snow Tires? When you see consistent temperatures below 45 degrees Fahrenheit, schedule a time to have your winter tires installed. The time frame will vary depending on where you live, but you should generally consider changing them out in mid- or late fall. You can bring your Lexus to our Lexus dealership and have us install new winter tires. You'll bring your summer or all-season tires home and store them during the winter. To save time and effort, consider having your snow tires and all-season tires mounted on dedicated wheels that meet your Lexus's specifications. You can then bring your mounted tires to our Lexus dealership, and we'll simply take your summer tires mounted on wheels off. We'll then install the mounted winter tires and wheels on your Lexus and send you home with your all-season tires and wheels to store. In reverse, when the weather climbs above 45 degrees Fahrenheit, bring your Lexus into the Lexus tire center to have the winter tires and wheels removed and your all-season tires and wheels installed. As part of our service at Lexus of Stevens Creek, we put your winter tires on in the fall before the storms roll in, and when the winter weather stops, we put your summer tires back on. How To Care for Winter and Seasonal Tires Once installed, keep your winter tires at the manufacturer's recommended psi. Having the proper psi increases your Lexus's stability and control and helps extend the tires’ life span. Ask one of our tire experts at Lexus of Stevens Creek about the perfect psi for the specific tire brand and your Lexus model. Before storing your seasonal tires, clean them so they're free from dirt, debris, and any tire dressings. Allow them to dry thoroughly before storing them. Once dry, place each tire in an airtight plastic bag, such as a lawn or leaf bag, and seal the bag tight. Be sure to remove any extra air from the bag. Next, place the individual wrapped tires in a cool dark location, preferably indoors. If the tires are mounted on rims, stack them on top of each other. If the tires are off the rim, stack them standing upright. Avoid placing the tires in direct sunlight or near furnaces or water heaters to avoid exposure to ultraviolet rays and ozone, which can cause cracks and deterioration of the tires. Top Tire Brands for Your Lexus At Lexus of Stevens Creek, we carry tire brands designed to fit your Lexus for optimum performance. We can get you the perfect winter tire from the following reputable tire brands: Bridgestone Bridgestone carries Blizzak tires for optimal winter driving performance.

Your and your passengers’ safety inside a car is always important, regardless of the destination. From long road trips to short trips to the mall or through the city, you want to ensure everyone's protection when driving in your Lexus. The latest models offer an impressive suite of safety features such as lane-keeping and braking assist. Browse the new Lexus car inventory at your local Lexus dealership in San Jose, California, for the best-quality safety systems to help everyone reach their destination safely. What Standard Safety Features Does Lexus Offer? Lexus believes in protecting its drivers and passengers as well as pedestrians and other people who drive Lexus vehicles. You can achieve this protection through collision prevention. That's why Lexus equips every vehicle made in 2020 and sooner with the Lexus Safety System+, a standard in upholding the best safety equipment possible. Take a deeper look into the standard safety features included in this incredible system. Pre-Collision With Pedestrian Detection Lexus engineered the Pre-Collision with Pedestrian Detection system to help prevent collisions and keep everyone safe from harm. This system may detect pedestrians crossing in front of your car and may also notice other vehicles with its Vehicle Detection capability. If the system detects a forward collision, Brake Assist automatically prepares the car to stop with additional braking power. However, even with this system, you should still practice driving safely and engage the brake wherever necessary. Lane Departure Alert Lane Departure Alert is a helpful device that alerts you when you begin to drift into another lane. It utilizes an in-vehicle camera to monitor the yellow and white lane markers on the road and use them as a guide to keep your vehicle centered. A visual and audible alert sounds if you unexpectedly enter the lane next to you, prompting you to double-check your surroundings to stay safe. Intelligent High Beams Worrying about not seeing enough of the road at night is no longer a problem with Lexus' Intelligent High Beams. The added illumination from the headlamps enhances your road visibility without bothering other drivers. This system works to automatically turn on the high beams when the road is clear. When it detects the taillights or headlights of another vehicle, the Intelligent High Beams revert to low-beam mode. These high beams promote better safety by helping provide early detection of pedestrians or other obstacles on the road. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control Cruise control is convenient; it allows you to reach your desired speed, press a button to set it, and relax your legs as you drive. While it optimizes your driving experience, it must include innovative technology to help you stay safe. The Lexus High-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control system maintains a consistent speed and includes a vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode. This mode helps adjust your speed when the car in front of you is driving at a lower speed. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control utilizes a grille-mounted millimeter-wave radar and in-vehicle camera to detect vehicles ahead of you. The system will automatically slow your car down and bring you back up to your desired speed once the road is clear. For the extra safety enhancements on this feature and more, Lexus equips some of its newest models with the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0. What Is the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0? The Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 offers enhanced vehicle protection for select models. The system boosts the existing pre-collision system and adaptive cruise control to offer the most comprehensive safety system a Lexus can provide. Below are the additional components included in this advanced safety system. Curve Speed Management Lexus adds Curve Speed Management to its existing Dynamic Radar Cruise Control as part of the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 package. This function uses technology to detect upcoming curves in the road while you're using the cruise control system. Before you reach the turn, the Curve Speed Management technology will reduce the vehicle's speed to take on this part of the road safely. Additional Intersection Support Your Lexus's enhanced radar and camera capabilities work together to protect you and others during the daytime and in low-light conditions. Because of the optimized radar and camera and Lexus' standard safety features, the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 can provide Additional Intersection Support to select models. This system helps monitor your surroundings when stopped at an intersection to ensure you drive through it safely at the appropriate time. The Additional Intersection Support offers a Right/Left Turn Oncoming Pedestrian Detection/Braking and Front to Front Oncoming Car Detection. With this support, the system can detect oncoming vehicles, vehicles crossing the intersection, bicyclists, and pedestrians in certain situations. For example, suppose you turn left at an intersection, and the safety system detects a potential frontal collision. In that case, the Risk Avoidance Emergency Steer Assist will help your vehicle avoid a collision. What Other Features Make a Lexus a Safe Car? On top of the outstanding Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, the manufacturer presents an optional subscription service to help you in case of an emergency. At the push of a button, the Lexus Enform Safety Connect enables you to reach the Lexus 24/7 response center. If an accident occurs, the system automatically connects to emergency service responders. Safety Connect also includes roadside assistance and will give your vehicle's GPS coordinates to safety personnel as needed. Which Lexus Vehicles Offer the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0?
