2014 Lexus LS 460

The 2014 Lexus LS design is at once bold and efficient. The signature spindle grille provides instant brand recognition, and while pleasing the eyes, the LS design cheats the wind with a very low 0.26 coefficient of drag. Discretely placed stabilizing fins on the body contribute to that low number and also help enhance high-speed control and handling.

The 2014 Lexus LS line includes the LS 460 in regular and long-wheelbase versions with a 386 horsepower 4.6-liter V8 (360 hp with all-wheel drive) and the LS 600h L hybrid with 438 total system horsepower from a 5-liter V8 paired with an electric motor. The LS 600h L is available exclusively with all-weather drive and is also the best-equipped LS in standard form.

Convenience and ease of use make another leap in the 2014 Lexus LS with the addition of available Siri Eyes Free Mode technology licensed from Apple.

The Lexus LS beckons the driver to savor curved roads a bit more thanks to significant enhancements in driving dynamics. The standard frequency-dependent shock absorbers help deliver flatter, road-hugging handling while also smoothing out rough surfaces. Available air suspension delivers an uncannily smooth ride while preserving the enhanced agility of the new-generation LS.

Personalizing the Lexus LS starts with a wide selection of exterior color and interior finishes. The driver can tailor the car's performance to driving style or mood by selecting Normal, Eco or Sport from the Driver Selectable Control Mode. The system adjusts several performance parameters, including shift points and throttle response. Eco prioritizes fuel efficiency, while Sport quickens responses for a livelier feeling. Models equipped with the air suspension offer two additional drive settings, Comfort and Sport S+.
