Model Highlights
The Lexus LS is powered by one of two engines, a twin-turbo V6 displaces 3.5 liters that makes 416 horsepower and is mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission or a 3.5L V6 hybrid engine that produces 354 horsepower.
The LS 500 comes in three basic trims, LS 500, LS 500 F Sport, LS 500 Inspiration Series and LS 500h, with each trim being available in both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. The LS 500 comes with plenty of equipment as standard including a power moonroof, dual-zone climate control with a built-in smog sensor, a navigation system displayed on a 12.3-inch display, a park assist system, heated and ventilated front seats, rain-sensing wipers, electronically dimming inside and outside mirrors and tons more.
Springing for the F Sport package adds 20-inch wheels, bigger brakes, an LFA-inspired digital instrument panel, perforated leather trimming throughout the cabin, 28-way power operated front seats with embossed headrests, aluminum pedals, tuned suspension, a black suede headliner and a passenger seat power cushion extender.
Safety equipment across the lineup includes front and rear parking sensors, an active lane departure system, blind spot warning, forward and rear collision mitigation, pedestrian detection, a driver attention alert and a traffic sign information system.
