Now , as someone who has never owned a vehicle with an electric tailgate , I ’ m still deciding if I like this feature . I think I do … and it is sort of nice to close the boot without having to wonder if I ’ ve done it properly before taking off . However , when a trailer is hooked up , the tailgate won ’ t open as the sensors assume the vehicle is parked too close to another object . To overcome this , you can go into the MID and change the settings to enable ‘ trailer mode ’, which will allow you to open the tailgate when hooked up . But from the showroom , this is something to be aware of .
The LS-T also gets 20in alloy wheels , Bi-LED headlights , LED fog lights , 235mm ground clearance , reasonable approach , ground-over and departure angles ( 29.2 °, 23.1 ° and 26.9 ° respectively ), automatic wipers and more . Obviously , the body shape is a massive departure from earlier MU-Xs and I ’ ve become a fast fan of its curves , though it ’ s a little less distinctive that the previous body shape . This is not a bad thing at all ; rather , it ’ s a personal observation . There ’ s no denying , however , that it ’ s a stylish , modern beast with an edge over its competitors in the appearance stakes .
