Mark Phelan: 2013 Lexus LS 460 lags in power but not style
The * * * 2013 Lexus LS 460 AWD F Sport is the best-looking and most responsive version of Lexus’ flagship sedan yet. Surprisingly low power and fuel economy keep it from threatening the world’s best luxury sedans, however.
The sedan showcases Lexus’ new design theme with a big trapezoidal grille, LED running lights and elegant lines. The attractive F-Sport package includes 19-inch, 10-spoke wheels; grille inserts, and a lowered suspension.
Prices for the 2013 Lexus LS 460 start at $71,990 for a rear-drive, short-wheelbase version. Non-hybrid versions of the LS have a 386-horsepower 4.6-liter V8 engine. The engine ...

Review: 2013 Lexus LS460 AWD – Goes Like Silk
First Impressions
The 2013 Lexus LS460 has the imposing curb presence customary of a luxury sedan flagship. The only way to improve initial statement would be to replace these 18-inch wheels with the 19s from the LS F-Sport. Every button, handle, and feature of the LS works in smooth and easy fashion. This car aims to please.
Styling/Design:
The exterior design of the new LS has just the right amount of aggressive flare without overdoing it. The rear-end is nice and clean, although the LED tail light pattern (when lit up at night) remind me of the 7-series. Overall, the LS does not make a loud statement. It can sneak under most ...

2009 Lexus LS 460 AWD
Tactile Love for the Innocuous
After sampling the stunning, sophisticated, yet simple beauty of the Jaguar XF, I was somewhat apprehensive about receiving this new Lexus LS 460 AWD. You see, being objective with each car driven is hard enough on its own back to back comparisons with something that crawled under your skin is something else.

EXECUTIVE EDITOR BOB GRITZINGER: The Lexus flagship has been the benchmark for solid Japanese luxury and this LS 460 L AWD does nothing to detract from that reputation. Other than the gaping spindle grille, the car isn’t flashy by any stretch. It has fairly plain wheels, a high beltline, and a distinct lack of bling. Kind of refreshing, and handsome, from certain angles, in an almost BMW 7-series way.
Inside, the car is all business, with touch controls, knobs and a mouse-like shuttle controller that takes some getting used to — it’s easy to overshoot a mark and hit the wrong ...

2014 Lexus LS 460 Review
by Larry Nutson
Senior Editor, New York Bureau
As the Lexus ultimate-luxury flagship my expectations were high. Also high, relatively speaking, is its total price that bumped on $87,000. It almost made me nervous driving all this money around.
There are lots of equipment items and features to marvel at. At your command is 360HP coming from the 4.6-liter 32-valve V8 driving through an 8-speed automatic and putting the power to the pavement through all-wheel-drive. Note that a rear wheel drive model is also available. The V8 will get you from stop to 60mph in 5.9 seconds, per Lexus. That’s quite adequate for ...

ASSOCIATE EDITOR SHERRICE GILSBACH: What a well balanced SUV this 2013 Lexus RX 350 F Sport is! Not balanced in the amount of power that is sent to the front and rear tires — although that’s great, too — but balanced in that it does everything well.
The exterior, when it’s all spit-shined and polished, exudes class. Our F-Sport ...

Lexus LS 460 Review
By Jay Shoemaker on November 13, 2006
Driving a Mercedes E63 AMG just prior to testing the Lexus LS 460 was a big mistake. The German and Japanese machines define the opposite poles of the luxury sedan spectrum. The E63 is for driving enthusiasts. The LS 460 is for people who hate cars.
At first glance, the LS 460 has finally stopped cribbing its design cues from Mercedes– and started cribbing from the BMW 7 Series. In the flesh, it’s clear that Lexus has turned inwards for inspiration. As I patrolled my dealer’s lot to scan color variations, I couldn’t distinguish an ES from an LS. In fact, the Japanese brand’s “L-finesse” design ...
