New Lexus LS

A new generation of the flagship Lexus saloon will go on sale later this year. There will be two engine options: the petrol LS460 and hybrid LS600h. There will also be the option of an F-Sport version with a 10mm reduction in ride height, more aggressive styling, a Torsen limited-slip differential and Ferrari-style blipping of the engine when changing down – although a Lexus LS is so quiet that it may not be too obvious.
