THE LS
State-of-the-art refinement

LS 460
ULTRA-SMOOTH
PERFORMANCE
V8 ENGINE, 8-SPEED TRANSMISSION
The LS 460 luxury sedan is an amazingly refined vehicle to drive. Powered by
an ultra-smooth 4.6-litre V8 petrol engine (its crankshaft is polished by hand to
ensure perfect balance) with the 8-speed automatic transmission, it sets pioneering
standards for cultivated performance. Delivering smooth power and economy, the
LS 460’s engine has D-4S direct fuel injection and dual VVT-i.

EXQUISITE
CRAFTSMANSHIP
LEATHER SEATS, REAL WOOD OR BAMBOO INLAYS
For driver and passengers, the LS is an incredible vehicle to travel, relax or work
in. Even on the longest journeys. The sumptuous leather front seats are 16-way
electronically adjustable with upholstery that is 15% thicker. Quality is overseen
by master craftspeople in our award-winning Tahara plant: witness the beautiful
stitching detail on the leather dashboard and precision-machined aluminium
controls of the audio system. For the ultimate in refinement, the steering wheel
and dashboard ornamentation are available in a ‘Shimamoku’ veneer (black/grey
striped wood) that involves 67 manufacturing steps over the course of 38 days.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
19-SPEAKER MARK LEVINSON
Among the world’s finest in-vehicle entertainment systems, a peerless
19-speaker Mark Levinson Reference sound system comes as standard.
With it, passengers enjoy perfect 7.1 channel surround sound. Bluetooth
mobile phone connectivity, and an auxiliary input and USB port for use
with media players is also fitted.
LED FOG LIGHTS
The LS 460 has LED front fog lights and rear combination lights.
The world’s smallest diameter LED fog lights are fitted too, with a lens
shape that combines beautifully with the spindle grille and LED daytime
running lights.
MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY
Positioned in the upper center of the meter cluster, the large 5.8-inch
colour TFT (Thin Film Transistor) multi-information display provides
a wide range of vehicle information, data, and warnings through userfriendly graphics.
BLIND SPOT MONITOR
Radar devices mounted in the rear bumper detect vehicles in adjacent
lanes that are not visible in the door mirrors. If the driver is indicating to
change lane and a vehicle enters the blind spot, a warning signal appears
in the relevant door mirror(s).
12.3-INCH MULTIMEDIA DISPLAY
The high resolution, 12.3-inch LED multimedia display is the widest
available in a series production vehicle. Driver and front passenger can
interact with multiple display screens using Remote Touch, while voice
commands also control a number of applications.
‘CLIMATE CONCIERGE’
‘Climate Concierge’ is yet another Lexus world
first innovation on the LS. Constantly monitoring
temperatures inside and outside the vehicle, this
integrated system automatically adjusts cabin,
seat and steering wheel temperatures.

DYNAMIC ILLUMINATION SYSTEM
As you approach the vehicle, a Dynamic Illumination System – a world
first from Lexus – switches on the door mirror lamps and clock light to
welcome you. When you unlock the doors, the daytime running lights
illuminate, as if the LS is awakening. Pressing the START button then
activates an elegant animation on the multimedia display, followed by a
gentle stream of light along the dashboard.
NANOE® TECHNOLOGY
This award-winning Lexus technology releases
microscopic, negatively charged particles into
the cabin. By attaching themselves to airborne
particles, these nanoe® ions help purify the
cabin air and effectively deodorise seats and
upholstery. In addition, because their moisture
content is approximately 1,000 times that of
conventional ions, you’ll notice a healthy
moisturising effect on your skin and hair.
EMV REMOTE CONTROLLER
Next generation Remote Touch, with single
press confirmation, lets you interact intuitively
with the central multimedia display. Ergonomically designed, this highly intuitive
controller is close at hand and as easy to use as
a computer mouse.
