AcuraWatch™ vs. Lexus Safety System+ 3.0

Safety by Lexus

The Lexus Safety System+ is the luxury automaker’s suite of safety features and driver-assistive technologies. This system comes standard with the following features:

  • Forward Collision Warning
  • Lane Departure Warning
  • Lane Keeping Assist
  • Intelligent High Beams
  • All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control

The Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 is the newest installment which includes Lane Tracing Assist, Road Sign Assist, and Intuitive Parking Assist. Although this may seem like a comprehensive package, let’s see how Lexus stacks up against the Acura safety features found in AcuraWatch™.

Safety: Lexus vs. Acura

For every Acura safety system found in the AcuraWatch suite, the Lexus Safety System+ has a slight variation, and version 3.0 seems to have finally caught up to Acura with the addition of Lane Tracing Assist and Intuitive Parking Assist. These same features are known as the Lane Keeping Assist System and front/rear parking sensors, respectively, on any Acura sedan or SUV.

AcuraWatch and the Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 have many similarities: both systems utilize sensors and cameras; both have a collision mitigation braking system, both systems use audio and visual alerts; and both systems apply steering and braking, when necessary. But how are these driver-assistance technologies used by two of their higher-profile SUVs?
