A back monitor is also available, automatically projecting a full colour, camera fed image of the view behind the vehicle onto the Lexus CT 200h's navigation system display or the 3.3" display on the inner mirror whenever reverse gear is engaged. Integral guide monitor lines further assist with precise vehicle placement for curb clearance and parallel parking.

SAFETY

As with every Lexus, the CT 200h's highly advanced safety features are structured around an 'Integrated Safety Management Concept', which is designed to provide optimum safety performance in every imaginable driving scenario. The Lexus CT 200h also offers the highest level of safety equipment in the segment.

Within a highly rigid, impact-absorbing body shell, the new premium compact full hybrid is equipped with the most comprehensive range of active, passive and pedestrian impact safety features in the compact segment. Offering drivers class-leading preventative safety through the use of the most advanced technology, the Lexus CT 200h has been designed to achieve 5-Star Euro NCAP and NCAP (USA), and 6-star J-NCAP (Japan) crash test programme ratings.

A world first in a premium compact segment vehicle, the Lexus CT 200h may be equipped with a pre-emptive, Pre-Crash Safety system incorporating Adaptive Cruise Control. Eight airbags and Whiplash Injury Lessening (WIL) front seats are fitted as standard, and an upgraded Electronically Controlled Braking-Regeneration system (ECB-R) incorporates Anti-Lock brakes (ABS), Brake Assist, Traction Control (TRC) and Vehicle Stability Control (VSC).
