Lexus LS

An Adrenaline-Seeker’s Dream

The Lexus LS has a 3.4L twin-turbo V6 engine under the hood, producing—wait for it—416 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque. The 10-speed Direct-Shift automatic transmission makes easy work of handling this much power.

On the days you want to feel more in control, standard paddle shifters let you command gear shifts. Whether enjoying the simplicity of the automatic transmission or shifting on the fly, the near-instant response time helps make every drive feel effortless.

In terms of real-world applications, the power behind the LS allows you to go from 0 to 60 MPH in just 4.6 seconds. With energy like this, you’ll always find yourself at the front of the pack.

Shift on the Fly

Did you know the LS is also a shapeshifter? It wears many hats to accommodate your changing moods. For instance, its Drive Mode Select feature modifies how the LS handles, depending on which of the two modes is selected. Which will you enable first?

• Sport S+: Sharpens throttle response and the feeling of the steering wheel for a driving experience that feels ripped from the racetrack.
• Custom: Lets you personalize shift points and other mechanics for a feeling uniquely tailored to you.

The Adaptive Variable Suspension constantly adapts to changing conditions. This dynamic system can detect changes in road conditions, such as potholes or speed bumps, and adjust the dampers to “smooth out” surface imperfections. The result is a driving experience that feels smooth as glass, regardless of where the road takes you.

Several suspensions are available, helping the LS accommodate your driving style. One of the most notable options is the available F SPORT-tuned Adaptive Variable Air Suspension, which meshes performance with accessibility. It maintains the sedan’s low center of gravity during the commute then raises the vehicle to make getting in and out of the LS easier.

Spacious Accommodations

The Lexus LS is a flagship sedan with seating for five. To ensure every rider is treated to comfort equally, you’ll find near-identical dimensions across both rows:

• Headroom (front/rear): 36.8/36.4 in.
• Legroom (front/rear): 41/38.9 in.
• Hip room (front/rear): 55.5/55.1 in.

If you have a trip in the works, your luggage will easily fit inside. The trunk offers 16.95 cubic feet of space, which leaves ample room for your suitcase and carry-on, golf clubs, work equipment, new hobby gear, and more. The standard power trunk with kick sensor makes loading up your stuff as easy as waving your foot beneath the bumper.

Your Mobile Serenity Spa

The Lexus LS is deemed a prestigious luxury sedan for many reasons. One look inside the cabin, and you understand why. Here’s a quick snapshot of some of the standard amenities:

• 28-way power-adjustable front seats with multifunction massage
• Heated and ventilated front seats
• Heated rear seats
• Active Sound Control and Active Noise Cancellation

Furthermore, the cabin is draped in sophisticated materials, like premium wood accent trim, quilted semi-aniline leather upholstery, and an Ultrasuede® headliner. Go on, indulge in spa-like serenity.
