Staten Island RX Dealers Have the Top Safety Pick RX Available by John.PriestFor Edison residents on the market for a crossover, look no further than the 2010 Lexus RX. The crossover is available at your Staten Island RX dealer and recently earned a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The award is given to vehicles that receive the highest possible safety rating of good in four crash tests.To determine how well a vehicle will protect its occupants, performance in high-speed front and side crash tests, a rollover test and a rear impact test are rated by the IIHS as either good, acceptable, marginal or poor. The Top Safety Pick awards are intended to promote continuous safety enhancements which make earning a rating of good in even one crash test is a difficult feat. Despite the challenge of harsher regulations and criteria, the RX passed with flying colors.In addition to an electronic stability control system which is a requirement in order for a vehicle to be deemed a Top Safety Pick, the RX comes standard at your Lexus RX Staten Island dealer with a slew of safety equipment. 4-wheel ABS, advanced air bag features, daytime running lights, rain sensing wipers and a pre-collision system are some of the technologies featured on the RX that will keep Edison drivers safe. The RX is as safe as its engine is powerful. The front wheel drive RX boasts impressive power thanks to the 3.5-liter V6 engine. The six-speed automatic transmission works with the engine to deliver strong acceleration and a smooth ride. The car comes standard at your Staten Island RX dealer with a new electric power steering system which makes for responsive handling and will prove to be more than capable for Edison residents and other city dwellers.The exterior style of the RX is similar to that of its derivative for a reason, it works. Broader fenders and a slightly slanted nose create a more refined exterior. The RX is easily recognized as a Lexus with trademark design cues including the distinctive front grille, front bumper and blue-trimmed Lexus logos. The interior of the RX is offered in solid or two-toned color schemes and is draped with high quality leather and lavish wood trim throughout. The long list of safety features, a powerful performance and a design to envy leaves little to be desired with the RX. In addition to offering a Top Safety Pick award winner, your Lexus RX Staten Island dealer also has the honor of offering the top-selling luxury brand in the U.S. Visit your Lexus dealer for more information or to test drive a car.
