Superb attention to detail sets the model apart
Our Take
The LS 500 is a smooth, long, powerful, and luxurious ride most people would be proud to own.
Some folks will object to its unapologetic and polarizing styling.
The 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 makes a very strong 416 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque.
Some drivers may wish the cabin wasn't so isolated from the road.
Lexus also makes a hybrid version for those who want an efficient luxury sedan.
