Lexus NX: System Description

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

ASC SYSTEM

(a) The ASC system uses a stereo component equalizer assembly to electronically generate a driving sound. Simulated engine sounds are output from the No. 1 speaker assembly with box.

The simulated engine sounds are calculated based on the vehicle information (driving mode, shift position and accelerator opening angle). The sounds can be turned on and off and the volume can be adjusted via operation of the vehicle sound switch.

(b) The following sounds can be output.

(1) Idling Sound

  1. When the vehicle is stopped or idling, a sound resembling an audible engine sound is output.
  2. When the vehicle is stopped, accelerating at below 10 km/h (6 mph) or decelerating at 9 km/h (6 mph) or less, sound is output. Idling Sound Output Conditions
