AN EDGE-OF-YOUR-SEAT THRILLER, PRESENTED
While the GS 460 can go from 0 to 60 in 5.4 seconds,2,3 what’s truly extraordinary
is how seamlessly it gets you there. An eight-speed sequential-shift automatic
transmission glides through its gears, while Variable Valve Timing with intelligence

CHILD’S PLAY.
The GS 350 with available all-wheel drive (AWD) means performance
driving in virtually any kind of weather. In low-traction situations where other
performance sedans might just turn around and go home, the GS 350 AWD
doesn’t hesitate for a moment. Engine power is automatically directed to the
wheels with the best grip, helping to provide greater adherence to the road,
especially during cornering. So while you weave your way through the twists
and turns, you may find yourself wondering: Is it the all-wheel drive or just
your incredible driving skills?

For even more assurance while cornering, every GS comes equipped
with the advanced Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) 1
system, which can help anticipate a skid—before it actually occurs. A
series of sensors constantly monitor factors like speed and wheel angle
to recognize when the GS could lose traction. It then takes the necessary
precautions to help the vehicle stay on track.

Seamless, nearly instantaneous acceleration. Of all the benefits the GS Hybrid has to
offer, this is the one that tends to be the most jaw-dropping. The moment you step on the
accelerator, the high-power electric motor launches your GS swiftly and stealthily off
the line. As you gain momentum, the V6 combustion engine engages, propelling you
even faster. How fast? Thanks to Lexus Hybrid Drive, you can go from 0 to 60 in a mere
5.2 seconds.2,3 Now that’s the kind of alternative power everyone can appreciate.

At the core of the GS 450h is the advanced Lexus Hybrid Drive system, which
features a powerful V6 gasoline engine and a high-output electric-drive motor.
An Electronic Control Unit (ECU) constantly decides how much of each power
source is required, helping to ensure peak performance and maximum efficiency.
Improving efficiency even more is regenerative braking, which uses kinetic
energy produced during deceleration to recharge the hybrid battery. Braking
as a source of power. Can you think of anything more ingenious?

Only some of the finest materials go into a GS. Take the genuine wood
trim. Each piece of paneling is carefully hand-selected, helping to ensure
consistency in both grain and color. And then there are the semi-aniline
leather-trimmed seats in the GS 460 and GS 450h—smooth to the
touch, but not so overly polished as to cause unwanted sliding during
hard cornering. It’s details like these that set the GS apart from other
performance sedans. Along with its pure, unadulterated power, of course.

The available Dynamic Radar Cruise Control18 uses radar wave technology
to help the GS keep a pre-set following distance from the vehicle ahead.
If the system senses you’re too close to the vehicle you’re following, the
throttle is reduced and the brakes are applied. Of course, once the road
clears or the vehicle you’re following picks up its pace, the GS will return

When it comes to performance driving, visibility is
key. For enhanced nighttime driving—especially on
winding roads—the available Adaptive Front Lighting
System (AFS) 19 can pivot the left headlamp up to 15
degrees and the right headlamp up to five degrees,
helping to illuminate more of the road through turns.
In the daytime, the instrument-panel gauges utilize
Electronic Chromatic Device (ECD) technology to
help reduce glare. A sensor located near the rear
window detects the amount of light being projected
into the vehicle. At a certain level, the faces of the
gauges automatically lower their transparency levels,
making the GS even easier on the eyes.

1. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) and Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) are electronic systems designed to help the driver maintain control under adverse conditions.
They are not substitutes for safe driving practices. Factors including speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all affect whether VSC and VDIM will be effective in preventing
a loss of control. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further details. 2. Ratings achieved using the required premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 or higher. If premium
fuel is not used, performance will decrease. 3. Performance figures are for comparison only and were obtained with prototype vehicles by professional drivers using special safety
equipment and procedures. Do not attempt. 4. F Sport™ Equipment are warranted for 12 months from the date of installation or for the balance of the new-car or Certified Pre-Owned
(CPO) warranty in force at the date of installation, whichever is greater, when installed by an authorized Lexus dealer. This warranty does not cover maintenance services such as
replacement of brake pads/linings and clutch linings. This warranty does not cover noise, vibration, cosmetic conditions and other deterioration caused by normal wear and tear. F Sport
Equipment installed by anyone other than an authorized Lexus dealer are warranted for 12 months from the date of purchase only, and the warranty coverage is limited to the replacement
value of the F Sport Equipment. This warranty does not cover maintenance services such as replacement of brake pads/linings and clutch linings. This warranty does not cover noise,
vibration, cosmetic conditions and other deterioration caused by normal wear and tear. Part failure caused by improper installation by anyone other than an authorized Lexus dealer may
void the F Sport Equipment warranty, the new-vehicle warranty or both. 5. F Sport™ is a trademark of Toyota Motor Corporation. All information presented herein is based on data
available at time of printing and is subject to change without notice. F Sport equipment is available exclusively through participating Lexus dealers. See dealers for more detailed
information. 6. With either the Front- or Rear-Brake Upgrade, the compact spare tire cannot be used. In the event of a flat, the tire must be repaired or replaced. 7. 19-in performance
tires are expected to experience greater tire wear than conventional tires. Tire life may be substantially less than 15,000 miles, depending upon driving conditions. 8. May not be sold
with a new vehicle and may not be financed together with a new vehicle. The air intake system has an aftermarket emission certificate only and cannot be sold or financed with a new
vehicle. 9. Mark Levinson® is a registered trademark of Harman International Industries, Inc. 10. Continuous average power, all channels driven, at less than 0.1% THD; 20–20,000 Hz.
11. Lexus Enform® and Safety Connect™ are available. Contact with the Lexus Enform and/or Safety Connect response center is dependent upon the telematics device being in
operative condition, cellular connection availability, navigation map data and GPS satellite signal reception, which can limit the ability to reach the response center or receive emergency
support. Enrollment and Telematics Subscription Service Agreement required. One-year trial subscription available only with new vehicle purchase of Lexus Enform– and Safety
Connect–equipped vehicles. Additional subscription terms available; charges vary by subscription term selected. 12. Lexus Enform premium services Destination Assist and eDestination
will function in the contiguous United States. These services may also function in Hawaii and limited areas of Alaska for vehicles that contain map data for those states. They will not
function in Canada or in other countries outside the United States. 13. Availability and accuracy of the information provided by the Navigation System or any XM services mentioned (if
installed) are dependent upon many factors. Use common sense when relying on information provided. Services not available in every city or roadway. Periodic Navigation updates
available at additional cost. Please see your Navigation System Owner’s Manual or contact XM for details. 14. The Safety Connect™ services Automatic Collision Notification,
Emergency Assistance and Stolen Vehicle Location will function in the United States, including Hawaii and Alaska, and in Canada. Enhanced Roadside Assistance will function in the
United States (except for Hawaii) and in Canada. No Safety Connect services will function outside of the United States in countries other than Canada. 15. Coverage only available in
the continental U.S. and Canada. Please see your Lexus dealer for details. 16. All the airbag (AB) systems are Supplemental Restraint Systems. All ABs (if installed) are designed to inflate
only under certain conditions and in certain types of severe collisions: frontal and knee ABs typically inflate in frontal collisions; side and side curtain ABs in side collisions; Roll-Sensing
Curtain ABs at a severe tilt degree, roll or lateral G-force. In all other accidents, the ABs will not inflate. To decrease the risk of injury from an inflating AB, always wear seatbelts, sit upright
in the middle of the seat as far back as possible and do not lean against the door. Do not put objects in front of an AB or around the seatback. Do not use a rearward-facing child seat in
any front passenger seat. The force of an inflating AB may cause serious injury or death. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further information/warnings. 17. XM services require a
subscription after trial period. Subscriptions governed by XM Customer Agreement available at xmradio.com. If you decide to continue your XM service at the end of your
complimentary trial, the plan you choose will automatically renew and bill at then-current rates unless you call 1-800-967-2346 to cancel. Fees and programming
subject to change. Available only to those at least 18 years of age in the 48 contiguous United States and D.C. 18. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is designed to assist the driver and is
not a substitute for safe and attentive driving practices. Please see your Owner’s Manual for important instructions and cautions. 19. The Adaptive Front Lighting System can help improve
vision at night. However, conditions such as a dirty windshield, rapidly changing light conditions or hilly terrain will limit effectiveness so the driver may need to manually change the high
beams from on to off. Please see your Owner’s Manual for details. 20. The backup camera does not provide a comprehensive view of the rear area of the vehicle. You should also look
around outside your vehicle and use your mirrors to confirm rearward clearance. Cold weather will limit effectiveness and view may become cloudy. 21. The Pre-Collision System is
designed to help reduce the crash speed and damage in certain frontal collisions only. It is not a collision-avoidance system and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System
effectiveness depends on many factors, such as speed, driver input and road conditions. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further information. 22. Brake Assist is designed to help the
driver take full advantage of the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake-system maintenance and tire and road
conditions. 23. Active headrests can help reduce the extent of whiplash in certain types of rear-end collisions. 24. 17-in performance tires are expected to experience greater tire wear
than conventional tires. Tire life may be substantially less than 20,000 miles, depending upon driving conditions. 25. 18-in performance tires are expected to experience greater tire
wear than conventional tires. Tire life may substantially be less than 15,000 miles, depending upon driving conditions. 26. EPA MPG Estimates. Actual mileage will vary. 27. The
SmartAccess system may interfere with some pacemakers or cardiac defibrillators. If you have one of these medical devices, please talk to your doctor to see if you should deactivate this
system. 28. The engine immobilizer is a state-of-the-art anti-theft system. When you insert your key into the ignition switch or bring a SmartAccess fob into the vehicle, the key transmits
an electronic code to the vehicle. The engine will only start if the code in the transponder chip inside the key or SmartAccess fob matches the code in the vehicle’s immobilizer. Because
the transponder chip is embedded in the key or SmartAccess fob, it can be costly to replace. If you lose a key or SmartAccess fob, your Lexus dealer can help. Alternatively, you can find
a qualified independent locksmith to perform high-security key services by consulting your local Yellow Pages or by contacting www.aloa.org. 29. The Lexus Personalized Settings (LPS)
can be programmed in two ways: For most models equipped with the available Navigation System, the driver can modify the settings themselves; for other models, including those without
a Navigation System, programming is done by your Lexus dealer via a one-time, complimentary offer during the first 12 months from the date the vehicle is sold. Please see your Lexus
dealer for more information. 30. iPod® is a registered trademark of Apple Inc. All rights reserved. 31. Bluetooth technology phones listed on lexus.com have been tested for compatibility
with Lexus vehicles. Performance will vary based on phone software version, coverage and your wireless carrier. Phones are warranted by their manufacturer, not Lexus. 32. Bluetooth
audio device must be enabled with A2DP and AVRCP. 33. Smart Stop Technology operates only in the event of certain simultaneous brake and gas pedal applications. When engaged,
the system will reduce engine power to help the brakes bring the vehicle to a stop. Factors including speed, road conditions and driver input can all impact stopping distance. Smart Stop
Technology is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving and does not guarantee instant stopping. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further details. 34. The Tire Pressure Monitor
System alerts the driver when tire pressure is critically low. For optimal tire wear and performance, tire pressure should be checked regularly with a gauge; do not rely solely on the
monitor system. Please see your Owner’s Manual for details. 35. Currently only available pre-installed on select vehicles. Ask your Dealer Sales Consultant for vehicle application.
