Reliability , luxury and intelligence describe this metal sheet.
I like the 7 series aswell
Indeed other brands look boring compare to this. This car is very beautiful and has a really future proof luxury design, again, well done Lexus!
Nice! I appreciate the interior review because other people on TH-cam were afraid to sit in it. And, I like the analog clock.
Interior design and quality is really good.
thanks! That's called "asking kindly" :)
This would be my only choice in this class. Real quality and depth of engineering that will last for decades with no repairs, unlike many competitors.
Excellent design from Lexus, putting many automakers to shame
This is definitely a competition for the Mercedes S Class. If you deny it you are denying reality.
P4nZerWolF why would anyone deny that? This has always been great competition for the s class , 7 series, audi A8, jaguar xj.japans best brand by a mile .
I hated it when I first saw it in photos, but yeah it did grow on me.
beautiful car I should say.
The interior is jaw dropping with the class and celt like materials.
I watch other car channels like Motortrend and Grand Tour for entertainment, but when I'm serious about buying a car I watch Autogefuehl and Carwow. This video really helps me get to know the car inside and out.
Superb car, congrat to Lexus!
ich muss sagen, dafür dass das ganze während einer Messe gefilmt wurde ist die Bild und Ton Qualität sehr gut.
You must be the few lucky ones to get to sit in the new LS500. Other journalists in another channel weren't allowed to sit in. Nice car really. Personally I prefer Alcantara interior than animals' skin. Loves the smooth flush with pillars side glass design, glad Lexus reintroduce this concept back. Wonderfully detailed review on the new LS500. Thank you.
That's our man! Always keeping it crispy AF!
my dad has the new S350 which is absolutely amazing. will convince him to give it back and get this because he had the first ever lexus LS in 1991 😂 nostalgia
Great review as always Thomas. Perhaps you could do a comparison review between the Lexus LS ans S class Benz later this year. I would like to see a comparison in terms of handling and ride comfort. Keep up the good work!
Thanks Thomas for your review.
The front end looks very sporty I like it!.
Greetings from Chile.
greetz!
One of my favourite brands. Thanks for this superb introduction.
For such a large and expensive luxury sedan the lack of headroom for drivers and passengers is unacceptable. I also don't understand the design choice of two dash "horns" controls sticking out.
Thanks for the very good review. very nice car. once you started the video from the inside the car with the door closed.. no more outside sounds. really really quiet. the interior is so nice they are now updated to compete with Merc. s class interior which is superb.
This car is stunning. It has been designed with passion.
EXCELLENT REVIEW - MY HUSBAND LEROY DRIVES A 2002 LS 430 CRYSTAL FLAXEN/ECRU WITH 168,000 MILES PRISTINE. HE CONSIDERING THE NEW LS500. HE LOVED YOUR REVIEW AND WILL HOLD OFF FOR ANOTHER 3 PLUS YEARS UNTIL THE 2002 HAS 250,000 MILES. THERE ARE A FEW WITH 1,000,000 MILES. HE WILL NOT LIVE THAT LONG.
+Barby Eide thanks!
Hi Autogelfuhl, I have seen and very impressed with how Mercedes Benz done vigorous safety test for their cars and components.. I have seen passengers walked out from a severed accident after Mercedes crash test. BMW used to disclosed their testing in the 80's sales brochures. But I have never seen Lexus disclosed their safety testing on their vehicles.
I love this car! The seats and arm rests look like premium cinema seats, ultra comfortable. If I won tattslotto, I would not hesitate to walk straight into the nearest Lexus dealership and order the new LS! haha. Such a beautiful car
Its signature Lexus which is a good thing. Its admirable that they're trying something different with their styling, and finally moving to Forced Induction engines.
The ls has always been such a class act.
Great video.
New LS 500 looks like the concept car.
very beautiful car very good review continue the great content greetings from your neighbour the netherlands
I thought the outside looked weird, especially the rear window area and the front end, but wow that interior is amazing. Can't wait to drive one of these.
too bad they only offer animal skin.
very nicely done. futuristic and different from other the boring German designs.
I would certainly want to have this. So pristine, elegant, loyal & fiercely independently interesting..
Great review as always Thomas!.
Loving the unique interior design and the direction that Lexus is taking. Also , I was wondering if you guys are going to review the new LC 500 Coupe, I would enjoy it very much! (Excuse me if you already have and I was not aware haha)
djchristian82 Hmmmm, it does say "REVIEW" in the title. Mind enlightening me?
The two switches on the top, as well with the position of the analog clock. It prolly all about it looks, as well for a sportier look :) Great review btw :)
thx bro!
Your content is very good! Hello from Russia, thanks for high-class car rewiews!
spassiba!
Beautiful review Good job man 👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻
thanks pal!
Nothing about the 24 " HUD ! but steel good review, this car is very beautiful i think it's classier than a Class S.
Fantastic review!
Its grill is so huge but elsewise in my opinion the exterior and interior is fairly fitting
I love the grill. It's luxurious looking to me. The car will be loved or hated by it, but for me it's attractive, unique and very appealing.
It looks awesome, thank you for the review.
you're welcome
I love this car.
Nice to hear German perspective on Japanese engineering. Pleasant, informative review.
He still hasn't reviewed a Dacia
Wonderful review! Subscribed! :)
welcome to the Autogefühl Community
This car is very beautiful inside out.
so Beautiful. so Refined. Elegant and Classy... LOVE it.
Thanks for the review.
Thanks, watch more of our reviews!
Hey Autogelfuhl, love your channel.
I like the new design, it's time for a change. I like the new hatch look style. About the Lexus Toyota Soft Tex?! It actually quite excellent, durable, easy care, and NOT MUCH WRINKLES compare to hides. I have it on my commuter car Prius V and I love it.(great work horse). I would preferred the soft Tex material. (Cooler in the hot summer than leather and it is fine with the heated seat. Clean the soft Tex with all purpose cleaner, spray on and wipe off with micro towels. That's all....
One of my elder brother drive Lexus for decades. And my elder brother drive Mercedes for decades too.. late 80's Lexus LS was to challenged Mercedes. I drove my brothers Lexus and other brother's Mercedes S diesel. I am much younger than them. I drive BMW and now Porsches, Hellcat, my daily Prius V and my my wife drive a RX Lexus. To my knowledge and experience, Lexus is a bullet proof car, low maintenance and very reliable. German cars can be expensive at time. But there is something special about the driving dynamic and secure feel sensation in a German cars that I have not find in a Japanese made car yet! But I heard the new Lexus and Camry has a better driving dynamic feel now.
very interesting, thanks !
It's not screaming, It's just like a cornucopia of disign treats, maybe a bit too much, but all elegant and beautiful.
Lexussss is the best
AWESOME AWESOME REVIEW!!!! The best one yet!!!! Nice and detailed and u made the car the center of attention!!! THANK U!!!!
Forget the car! What was that all about?! 14:30 Well done, Thomas, with the review as well! :)))
haha =) we were talking about that new chinese brand
Wow!!!.... what presence, greaatt looks...
I really like it. Bold and aggressive! Looking forward to seeing the F Sport version. Would op for less chrome. Black or dark gray with saddle brown or merlot interior leather. Great review! 👍🏻
V Clark this is the f sport version is not it?
this will give every remaining Yugo a run for its money
Wonderful Design and it is different to germans competetors ! Good thing because if we observe Genesis's models, it's just too boring
I love this man
Love your vids
thanks spread the word for us!
It's beautiful. So long low and wide
This is great i love it wish to have one
You should have at least 1m subs
I'm a Lexus owner (GS450h Fsport 2015) and kind of fan. But in this car 2 things are shocking me. The clock is really in a weird place, looks like they put it a last minute. And they could use another Navi controler because the touchpad is for me a bad thing. I've used it in a IS and I think it isn't good for an easy control.
I love the design and silhouette of the car except the super long trunk...
Agree with Smokey, BMW and Audi will need to step up their game if they are going to compete with this and with the S class. This LS takes a page from Audi's book with the big infotainment screen that extends form the instrument panel across a good bit of the dash. Love the interior, i don't think that Germany and Sweden's oppressive black interiors are going to stack up very well against these new warm opulent interiors that I'm seeing from Volvo with the s 90 and with this car as well. I'm ok with the absence of animal skin seats, as long as they have butt-warmers that's good enough for me!
It would be awesome if you can find crash testing from Lexus factory?!
I like the way it
Looks a lot.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼Im not that much of a fan of that interior. But i need to see the material combinations. I thought they would put more wood veneer but then again not everyone has the same old man vibes toward more wood in side the interior like i do.
why so small in the back? :o looks like barely larger than the IS
Would really like to see you test this car fully, Thomas.
Same!
Do you go to the Brussels Motor Show?
Spectacular car in the good way. I really feel the best of the Asian world design in this car.
I would buy it, looks fantastic and it should be a reliable car. Only shame lexus doesn't change this multimedia command system, although every single car reviewer make a complaint. Really seems unpractical while driving. Should be something like in german triple upmarket cars. Also I think they would sell many more of those and RX cars with an optional 3.0 l six cyl diesel engine for europe market.
That Grill! Jeeze!
It looks way more intriguing than the very boring looking competition
Thanks again Thomas
np :)
How long will you be there? I'm going the 14th, would love to meet you. Huge fan!
home again :)
interior is gorgeous and fung shui'd out. they should have made the front headlight styling like the LC. headlight styling on them now does not fit.
show"! acho que eu vi esse carro no salão do automóvel 2016 São Paulo Brazil.
Just like with the Camry, Lexus/Toyota is putting some polarizing sportier design ... love or hate the grille but Lexus is taking risks in a somewhat conservative segment
I love the analog clock, that is not a minus, that is a plus and Lexus did an awesome job with the interior. The touch pad is easy to get used to, it is not a minus again IMO. Also, a leather interior is not a minus, you don't want to spend $100K on a Luxury car to get cloth? So, I disagree with what you didn't like about some of the features in this car, but overall you did a good review.
Thank you for taking interest in this very important topic!
First to the practical reasons:
1. animal skin seats get hot in summer and you stick to the seat
2. they are cold in winter
3. on cloth or microfibre, you basically don’t need seat heating nor cooling
4. animal skin seats wear out very fast and look like granny’s old sofa
5. if you want leather look, the leatherette (faux leather) surfaces are meanwhile highly evolved and it is possible that it feels even softer and better than anything else (See our Tesla Model X review) So Tesla shows that the discussion wether you need animal skin is basically done.
Still, now to the environmental reasons:
1. There are many productions where the cow is killed for the skin first, sometimes even alive, the skin is the most profitable single part of the body.
2. The way the cows are held are catastrophic (see videos below)
3. Even if a cow gets killed for meat first, you give additional money to an industry that relies on murder, pollutes the environment and harms people with chemicals.
4. Does it really matter for which cause a mammal, that is 99 % genetically identical with us, gets killed? Would you say a cow only got slaughtered for the meat in the leg and thus it got slaughtered for the meat in the neck anyway? That doesn’t make sense.
5. So to the often said argument, animal skin would just be a byproduct, please google/youtube "leather is not a byproduct" you will find plenty of information. A good overview on all those issues can also be found here: adaptt.org/
6. Let's say you are standing at the meat counter. And you ask for the leg of the cow. The butcher tells you: "You can eat that without worrying, the cow was slaughtered for the neck first". The next customer demands the neck. The butcher tells him: "It's not your fault, the cow was slaughtered for the belly". An the next customer demands the hide, what answer does he get? You see, that argument of "byproduct" comes from the meat and leather industry to cover that you contribute to killing no matter which part of the body you buy.
Special videos:
1. A special video from Autogefühl considering the use of leather can be found here: th-cam.com/video/8f91KgbVbJQ/w-d-xo.html
2. And another one right here: th-cam.com/video/tMNgcLE0LDU/w-d-xo.html
3. Furthermore, you’ll find footage of leather production here, where people are walking in chemicals etc. and animals have to watch their friends being slaughtered in front of their eyes: th-cam.com/video/JipYvuDsI6s/w-d-xo.html
timecode starting 27:46
4. This is another video which very well summarizes the torture of leather production, shots taken at big farms which directly produce for the automotive industry: th-cam.com/video/OgHs239bAnE/w-d-xo.html
Help to raise awareness on this subject. Thanks!
I don't like the rounded window line and hunchback roof. From the side it looks like Infiniti Q70, rear is too close to Hyundai Genesis (G80).
Everything looks good except for that long front end
That girl looks so fine,so does the LS
for the first time me choose lexus LS over S-Class or 7 Series
great review as always , the car looks great even the interior, the only thing that i really didn't like is the speedometer looks terrible , it should be like a big screen contains a lot of informations not that minimalist
yeah
yo mister "yournalist".. i wonder how fast will your german super systems and super bmwis start to breake down:):)
I dont mind Lexus selling more cars than BMW, why should I ?
This LS looks like a grown up Lexus IS. My only reservation is the available fitting height of this car. Thomas is 6 foot 1 and his head was touching the ceiling when sitting in the rear seat. And nearly touching the ceiling when sitting at the front seat.
Come on Lexus, this is the most luxurous car in your line up and a 6 foot 2 person will be difficult to fit in.
I think, it is a cool car. I alsp think there will come a LWB version with more space in the rear for the legs. But the headroom looks not so good. But in the end, a great looking car 😊
Do you could also film the Genesis G90?
In the USA we will only receive a LWB version. The one on display is the LWB LS500.
Anthony C Brown ok, thank you for the awnser.
There will be only one wheelbase,so no SWB/LWB anymore
Do you have a source for that? In the press release what you describe could not be found. Lexus has not stated the longest wheelbase will be the only option in all global markets.
Boring interior and what is with the C pillar area, the extra pillar on the door is hideous all so that the rear window can go completely down.
Beautiful
rear seat leg room is a little compromised
something different that is what i like
I think this looks good. I hope you take a look at the Chevrolet Bolt at the show so I can know your thoughts.
we already had it here: th-cam.com/video/LZHhpkmWf24/w-d-xo.html
Autogefühl 😃👏🏼👍🏼
It looks quite good, different. The only problem will be the price.
I see no rear sun shades...
Don't nap Superman! ♡
it isn't as spacious as the s500 but it's great to me
5:28 Next to std (what a joke it is)/optional display of the G11 this one looks from the future
The rear seat cushion looked like it is too low to provide thigh support and the toe space looks cramped. That's disappointing. I'll reserve my final judgement for when I see it in person and have the chance to sit in the seat myself. As it stands now, the Mercedes S-class reigns supreme for rear passenger comfort. I was hoping the Lexus would address these flaws.
With the S class the front seats are high enough for the rear seat passengers to completely stretch out their feet under the front seat. The latest Hyundai Sonata and even the Nissan Rogue have this ability, and yet this Lexus doesn't????????
Fantastic carrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
interior design reminds me Citroen's limousine style but not japanese car brand
As I have had a number of LS models in the past, including my current 2016, I have been a big fan of this car. I have mixed feelings about this new model, however. On the positive side, the styling is beautiful (except for what might be perceived as a "hump" at the rear similar to the first generation Porsche Panamera) and I applaud the new technology that will now be available. But I am disappointed in the lengthening of the car (my standard wheelbase model has plenty of rear legroom) and the loss of the naturally-aspirated V8. I don't like the electronic shifter in place of my current shifter that moves through the gears and I don't like control pad for the infotainment system. Finally, I am disappointed that the naming convention, which until now has accurately displayed the size of the engine (i.e. my LS460 has a 4.6 liter engine), has gone the way of BMW and Mercedes, adopting a rather helter-skelter naming system which bears no connection with the engine size.
That interior is amazing. If I were a 3rd World Dictator, I'd rather have this over the S550s that you see everywhere.
Thomas wo hast du deine brille her also wie ist der name dieser brille finde ihn sehr nice
moin, die marke heißt silhouette!
Autogefühl danke
love the car but the wheels look to small on that large sedan.
