- The 2018 Lexus LS 500h, the full hybrid version of Lexus’ new flagship sedan, was unveiled in Geneva.
The model, which follows the world premiere of the twin-turbo gas V6-powered LS 500 at the 2017 NAIAS in Detroit, is a further manifestation of how Lexus has reimagined the luxury sedan, presenting bold design, enhanced performance and a sophisticated appeal to capture the imagination of forward-thinking customers.
The car’s design successfully brings together the virtues of a long-wheelbase four-door sedan with a low, coupe-like profile, positioning the LS perfectly across the growing sedan and coupe segments.
The cabin has benefited from an equally new approach, focusing on “progressive comfort,” interpreting Japanese aesthetics and craftsmanship traditions in the context of an advanced, luxurious and innovative vehicle interior such as the unique door trim ornamentation. Notably, the LS 500 was honored at the NAIAS with the EyesOn Design Award for Design Excellence - Interior Design.
The LS 500h’s Lexus Multi Stage Hybrid System combines a 3.5-liter V6 Dual VVT-i gas engine with two electric motors, together delivering a total output of 354 horsepower. The engine makes optimal use of Dual VVT-i (intelligent variable valve-timing), with timing precisely gauged in line with driving conditions, helping to secure high torque at all engine speeds. Measures to reduce friction losses and thus improve engine efficiency include the adoption of narrow, lightweight roller rocker arms and low-friction timing chains, while D-4S direct fuel injection helps create optimum combustion conditions, contributing to enhanced fuel economy.

Looks impressive. The detailing on the interior is really wonderful.
Got to say that interior is gorgeous.
If I drove on salt everyday to work, I would definitely choose the Lexus. Hopefully there is a pavement tire option too.
I bet if you doubters saw it in person, your words would change instantly.
Lexus stay having crazy facial expressions/ surfaces on their cars. however, I like that they are being "sketch like" with their models. 😊
This background music getting me so high.
gimme this and I'll still fyb ... you can keep the s class
beautiful car, tá lindo o carro
The grill looks like the zapping tool we use to catch flies and moth
how safe is that glass piece in the doors for a side impact?
Waiting for coupe
The design will straight out cringe people with certain disorders. Lexus is trying so hard to escape the boring category but they have simply lost class with the overwhelming amount of details in every corner in this car inside and out. The S class is simple elegance, this is a ricer large sedan without the loud muffler.
Which song is in the first part of the video?
love it
this video could be as short as the word "NO"
With only 354 hp?? TT v6 2 electric motors doesn't add up to 354hp
Supreme Etnel this isn't the twin turbo v6 but the old na v6.
بسیار عالی
more than a half of you guys can't even afford a car tho -_-
There going to need to put more than a 3.5 v6 hybrid to compete with an S Class. People don't pay big bucks for good fuel economy. The car looks good, but it's so hard to compete with the benchmark.
lion without fangs, that's it
My tryptomania went out of control... why would Lexus feature so many oddly shaped lil holes !?!?!?!?!
DimachkaS cause they tried to copy the Mercedes shower head b&o audio speakers but tried to be different
S klass has class.
nice care
No v12? No contest. Amongst other things.
Nicholas Too I didn't know all base s classes had v12s at around 90-100k
John Le Sorry, if I'm not mistaken, I meant that there's no option for a V12 with Lexus. If price needs to go up, so be it, but I feel that ultra lux cars need a v12, for a smooth quiet ride at low rpm. That being one of the factors that S Class got.
I am underwhelmed to say the least. I am sure it is a technical exercise of brilliance. But it comes across as emotionally captivating and inspiring as Luke warm beer. I mean, for real inspiration.. look at the BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso. That car.. stance... presence.. emotion.. And I don't even like BMW's!
Fight the S-Class?! Yes... But definitely not win
no way shit lexus will surpass the legendary s class
Lexus is Better than Mersedes🥰🔥
Nice try. Looks like a grown up Lexus IS.
Audi single frame one step further...
The dashboard looks exactly the same as the S-Class
Sir, I don't think you are familiar with S-Class dashboard, or you just misunderstand what "dashboard" means.
O, come on! It is not even near to the S-class! maybe BMW 7...
the LS ready to fight the s class? even the 7 series can't compete against the s class. the LS is the same level tier with the genesis G90!
mers w221 the best!!!!
It can easily compete W222 S class, both cars looks crap
No you're not
Lets try fight with some other opponents - it is not nearly classy as the S-class
i love lexus ... but not even close to the S class .. better luck next time
kan du zeigen mir S class ? I
By design? Not a chance. IMO looks ugly.. And I liked Lexuses, too many curves, too many disturbing lines. I am lost.
Contrived styling. That ugly grill that they insist on is a big turn off.
Never. Japaneses and koreans must learn this is not their segment and it will never be (I hope).
Actually Lexus started out with this segment with the LS and it's what got Mercedes and BMW back on their drawing boards.
GermanyTechno you have no idea what you are talking about.
Nope. Definitely not. This Lexus is a mish mash of incoherent design ideas. It does not look classy, elegant or luxurious. Lexus can't really ever match its German competition. It can therefore stick to competing with Infiniti, Lincoln, Genesis etc.
Lorenzo Emili It is Infiniti/Genesis luxurious but definitely not S Class luxurious.
Lexus LS 500h (2018) ready to fight S-Class..i don't think so.
Easly much better than this overprised mesedes . Merc for old fat men
no, s class always
Does this shit has a TV tuner? NO.
Does this shit has infotainment system from 2005 - YES.
I love lexus but they can't compete with infotainment from 10 years ago...
It does have Digital TV. Get one first.
Japanese vs German = for sure German -_-
i think s class more better than Lexus.
No one in their right mind would buy a re-skinned Toyota or Hyundai over the big Germans. You have to be insane or a true fanboy to choose these over a S-Class, 7 series or A8. Just stop trying guys, its srsly embarrassing and is nothing short of showing your desperation to appease an unattainable market, and I am speaking as someone who has Japanese heritage.
Lexus is short of sexy.
Body needs streamlining like muscles.
NO
Cadillac Elmiraj looks better.
Trying too hard with design? I think yes.
no way shit lexus will surpass the legendary s class
