Excel-G Product Line Details

KYB Excel-G is the brand’s OE replacement line for drivers who want factory-like suspension behavior. It is classified as Original Equipment for the Aftermarket because it is engineered to match the vehicle’s original damping characteristics, making it a practical choice for restoring front suspension performance on Lexus NX and Toyota crossover applications.

Detailed Description
