Introduction
The Lexus LS is the flagship model of the Japanese manufacturer, currently in its fourth generation. Competing with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7 Series, this luxury sedan is significant for Lexus and has positioned Japan as a contender in the luxury car market.
History and Production
Produced at the Tahara plant of Lexus, the LS has been in production for over a decade. The new model was spotted by a photographer in one of the American deserts, heavily camouflaged but with clear features such as distinctive round headlights and rear tail fins.
Design
Expect no parts from earlier Lexus models; what you can anticipate includes:
- A trapezoidal front grille
- A distinctive wheelbase
- Ample foot space
- Large vehicle proportions
Expected Specifications
This vehicle is expected to feature an 8-cylinder V8 engine with rear-wheel drive. Given industry trends, it would be inappropriate to include a hybrid or electric variant in this competitive segment. A larger wheelbase is also anticipated for the Middle Eastern market.
