Midlife facelift

[Las Palmas]

Some could profit from a mid-life update. But getting fit is a lot harder than keeping fit.

This is what helped me when I retired from a job that mostly meant sitting on a chair in front of a computer with a phone in my hand.

The mountains here are beautiful.

Some pictures Lexus have released for the update.

More detail and photos in these two links. The facelift includes many more changes than previously disclosed. For example, increased body rigidity, suspension mods, quieter run flat tyres and an under body panoramic view helping the driver to understand road surface conditions and tyre position below the vehicle!

Even more pictures

I don't think this adds anymore info, just different wording.

That's the case currently, don't know whether the same will hold true for the facelift. Lexus UK have said further info on spec details will be released next month.

It was also a new one on me. 

Some of the features shown in this video might give a clue as to what the UX system will be like. Elsewhere I read:

the UX’s standard Panoramic View Monitor, or 360-degree camera system, now offers an “underbody transparent display function” using the various camera sensors. “This combines images of road surface conditions taken in the past with an image of the vehicle underbody, helping the driver to fully recognise vehicle position in relation to road surface conditions below,” the company says.

Which I take to mean the underbody image is recreated from a recording made from the normal four panoramic cameras as the car previously moved toward the spot it's now over.

It does seem they're dropping the clock but the larger screen with a more square aspect ratio is much better for displaying maps. Possibly the clock was included because the original screen was so elongated
