Trailer towing (RX350)
The strain of towing a trailer will have a negative impact on the running per-
formance, handling, fuel consumption and endurance of your vehicle. Use
the vehicle features in the correct manner and operate the vehicle with
care for safer driving and optimal comfort. Damage and/or malfunctions
that occur as a result of towing performed for commercial purposes are
not covered by the Lexus warranty.
Ask your local authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional for further details before towing, as there
are additional legal requirements in some countries.
■Weight limits
Check the allowable towing capacity, GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass),
MPAC (Maximum Permissible Axle Capacity), and permissible
drawbar load before towing. (→P. 606)
■Towing hitch/bracket
Lexus recommends the use of the Lexus hitch/bracket for your
vehicle. Other products of a suitable nature and comparable quality
may also be used.
■To prevent an accident
The handling of the vehicle will feel different when towing a trailer.
Beware of the 3 most common causes of towing-related accidents:
driver error, excessive speed, and overloading.
