ENTRANCE
A glance at the new LS and it’s obvious why this vehicle
pays homage to the obsessive designing that goes into
making it the sleekest machine on the roads. Boasting
a precisely sculpted exterior and the iconic new spindle
grille frontal design that is in line with the L-finesse
philosophy, the LS embraces a precise eye for detail
that lets your vehicle exude a powerful exterior with a
commanding road presence.
Introducing the highest level of craftsmanship and
refinement, the LS sets to introduce luxury through a
contemporary showcase of carefully chosen materials
and finishes within the cabin.
What you get is the perfect combination of
enhanced elegance, greater road presence,
and an unmistakable brand identity.
The Lexus LS – A Class Beyond First.

FUNCTIONALITY
TO ELEGANCE
Every curve and every inch of the new LS has been
strategically thought through and perfected to deliver
a bold blend of refinement and sportiness, with a
unique sense of presence that is appropriate with the
luxury that is associated with Lexus. From the muscular
bonnet design that gives the vehicle a resolute look and
strengthens its impression of power and agility, to the
deep front bumper design that creates a low center of
gravity and broad, purposeful stance, the new LS exudes
an unmistakable identity on the roads.
And while the new LS shares its predecessor’s long
elegant cabin proportions, the shape of its rocker panels
and below-door mouldings have been changed, making
the vehicle more aerodynamic by channeling air to flow
smoothly along the flanks of the car.

FULL CONTROL
AT YOUR
FINGERTIPS
The dashboard is divided into two distinct zones.
The first is an upper Display Zone, with a class-leading,
ultra-wide 12.3-inch LCD multi-display screen that is
located at an ideal distance for at-a-glance viewing. And
the second being a lower Operation Zone, which allows
access to system controls such as the second generation
Lexus award-winning Remote Touch Interface (RTI).
The RTI is a mouse-operated controller that lets you
manage the car’s operations at your fingertips. This
technology makes it possible for you to intuitively control
the on-screen buttons and pointer with your fingertips,
by providing feedback to your palm via a knob that
creates the impression of operating buttons on the
screen. Ergonomically positioned on the centre
console, the RTI system lets you easily access a wealth of
information even while you are driving at high speeds.

SILENCE, EVEN AT
100KM/H
You’ll discover that the LS performs with the
smoothness, quietness, and the effortlessness that other
cars can only hope to achieve. In terms of quietness, the
LS is unmatched. Through the use of noise-reduction
wheels that stop road friction from transforming into
sound energy, rigorous testing has revealed that
even when driving on an uneven road, the cockpit
environment in the area of the front seats is significantly
quieter. Maximum comfort and pampering luxury is
assured with the new LS.

ANOTHER
PERSONAL BEST
IN TOP-NOTCH
COMFORT
The new LS is one of the most precise vehicles in
the Lexus family, and we have got the comfort levels
to match. The high body rigidity of the vehicle takes
luxury up another notch. Not only is it fundamental
to heightening vehicle stability and handling agility,
the LS’ high rigidity body also plays a significant role
in minimizing vibration from the engine bay and road
surface into the cabin. This design consideration brings
about a noticeable reduction in vibration, especially
around the floor area at the driver’s seat, leading to
marked improvements in ride comfort.
Add to that, the front seats of the new LS have also
been improved with a new design that minimizes
pressure peaks, improves support and reduces fatigue
during even the longest road trips. The 20mm increase
in cushion thickness of the seat base, together with a new
Ottoman-style fold out seat, also adds greater comfort by
improving pelvic support and maintaining ideal posture.

A NEW
DIMENSION
IN STYLE AND
COMFORT
What other cars do well, the new Lexus LS
does brilliantly. And this is especially true
when it comes to the quietness of the cabin.
Comprehensive improvements have been
made to the sound insulation throughout the
LS, allowing it to surpass even the exemplary
standards of cabin quietness that have been
established by other Lexus vehicles. Engine and
road noise have been reduced through thicker
insulation adopted on the front wheel arch liners,
while road noise is eliminated through floor
silencers and insulation materials under the rear
seat. The end result is a luxurious environment
that is quiet enough for normal conversations
even when the LS is moving at high speeds.

LUXURY
Add some design genius into the interiors
of the car, and you’ll get unrivalled comfort
that enhances your drive. The driving
experience has been enhanced by a new
3-spoke steering wheel which, at 380 mm in
diameter, is 10mm smaller than the 4-spoke
design it replaces, offering you a more sporty
feel and a better control of the vehicle. The
driver’s instrument binnacle also incorporates
high-visibility, large diameter Optitron dials
and a 5.8-inch Thin Film Transistor Multiinformation screen – the largest among other
Lexus vehicles – with an enhanced display
ability for your ease and comfort.

LUXURY
IN EVERY
SINGLE DETAIL
Forget all that you knew about dashboards. The new
LS features a human-oriented instrument panel that is
designed with your comfort and utility in mind. The panel
reflects this with a radical change to a more horizontallybased layout that offers drivers a more comfortable,
ergonomically ideal interaction with the vehicle’s Human
Machine Interface (HMI) system.
Every aspect of the driving position has been carefully
considered to create the ideal placement of controls,
maximize comfort, and minimize driver distraction and
fatigue. To make it easier for you to access the controls,
the switches have also been combined and their number
reduced, while the centre cluster has been made more
compact. Not only is the redesigned instrument panel
comfortable for you during long drives, it also helps you
focus your attention on the road, making sure you are safe
and sound.

While others are searching for the true
meaning of absolute luxury, Lexus has already
become the trendsetter in the world of subtle
elegance. Luxury is emanated throughout the
interiors of the LS. Exquisite stitched leather
seats are found in all LS models. Genuine
materials and finishes convey a contemporary
premium look and feel, with a level of
craftsmanship and attention to detail that
introduces luxury through a modern, premium
cabin atmosphere. While the highly durable
material and highest quality stitching showcase
the attention to detail of the vehicle’s design.

obsessively comfort-oriented vehicle.
Through the Lexus Climate Concierge,
the world’s most advanced climate control
system, you’ll enjoy automatic integration
of seat heating and cooling systems. The
Lexus Climate Concierge measures climatic
conditions throughout the cabin, and
distributes warm or cold air throughout the
cabin of the new LS.
Fully customizable, this system also controls
the temperature of all points of contact within
the cabin, making sure that all occupants in the
car enjoy cool comfort.
In addition, the new nanoe technology
system has been introduced to the LS, which
is an air cleaning technology that operates
automatically when the air conditioning is
switched on.

The new LS is one vehicle that blurs the distinction
between luxury sedans and powerful road machines.
With its 4.6 litre V8 engine, the new LS sees an
exhilarating boost in its power. It will stir your pulse and
give you the rush of adrenaline as it goes from
0 to 100km/h in only 5.7 seconds. The LS intensifies
the feeling of driving, letting you experience every
adrenaline rush while keeping you firmly in control.
A full hybrid V8 powertrain has also been introduced on
board the LS Hybrid, combining a 5.0 litre petrol engine
with a powerful, high-output electric motor and a
large-capacity battery pack that let you go from
0 to 100km/h in 6.3 seconds. That’s why the new
generation of LS hybrid driving wonders are also top
performers of its time, delivering speeds and functionality
that surpass its predecessors. With an unparalleled
balance of performance and environmental efficiency,
you can enjoy enhanced fuel economy along with the
world’s top-level engine performance in its league.

PUTTING
THE SMOOTHNESS
BACK INTO
THE DRIVE
Everything at its best. Effortless road acceleration,
smooth handling, and even the assuring feel of the brake
beneath your feet. It’s the fundamental guarantee when
you drive a Lexus LS. Each successive generation of
the LS has established a reputation for class-leading
aerodynamics. With a drag coefficient of just 0.26 in
all configurations, the new LS has staked its claim as the
most aerodynamically efficient car in its league.
The first generation LS was the first vehicle in the
premium automotive segment to adopt a multi-link
configuration to boost the front and rear air suspension
system. And with the new LS, this system has been refined
to offer a more comfortable ride while reducing roll
angles and improving initial response to steering inputs.
The new LS is also the only car in its category to
feature an electro-hydraulic braking system. This not
only contributes to a reduction in overall brake system
weight, but also allows for more precise brake force
distribution. This means that you will enjoy superior
braking response and effectiveness.

The new LS doesn’t just challenge you to re-imagine
the possibilities. It also single-handedly pushes the
boundaries of engineering to deliver cutting-edge
machines. This unparalleled sense of innovation has
brought about a forward-thinking vehicle that flaunts
the most intuitive and innovative technologies, evident
in its ride-comfort and improved driving dynamics.
Rigorously upgraded to combine refinement and high
speed stability, the LS features improved body rigidity
and enhanced aerodynamics to deliver a smoother
road-hugging ride. While the new Drive Mode Select
system lets you toggle among five driving modes to
personalize and optimize your drive.

Armed with five switchable driving modes
(Eco, Comfort, Normal, Sport S and
Sport S+), the new LS lavishly caters to the
most important person in the car – the driver.
The all-new five driving modes let you control
every aspect of the car, letting the driving
experience truly morph to fit your every need.
The ECO mode provides a fuel-efficient,
environmentally-conscientious driving
experience by modifying the throttle
response and engine power output.
The newly added COMFORT mode changes
the suspension characteristics of the vehicle,
giving you a smoother and more comfortable
straight-line ride.
When the vehicle is operating on
SPORT S mode, you can tap into the full
potential of the powertrain, maximizing throttle
response and engine power output, giving you
an authentic sporty driving experience.
SPORT S+, on the other hand, combines
enhanced performance with adjustments to
both the chassis and steering control systems,
for the ultimate in sport sedan driving.

the 19-inch aluminium wheels, 6-piston Brembo front
brake calipers and the F SPORT emblem on the front
fenders add to the car’s distinctive race car appearance.
And with the vehicle’s Sport air suspension that lowers
the body height by 10mm, it is a driving experience that
delivers on all fronts – head-turning looks, sporty design
flair, and unprecedented performance.

The LS differs from other vehicles in that it is built for
customers who possess a more highly critical eye.
This includes a keen sense of beauty and quality as
nurtured through their life experiences. As such, they
demand the best. Our target customers are precisely
those who are familiar with the real thing, so are capable
of casting a critical eye on products they consider buying.
This is the first step towards refining the new LS and
creating a further sophisticated product.

LS Chief Engineer
