As we know, the LF-Sh concept car shown in Tokyo motor show is almost the production third generation Lexus LS. Judging from the photos, the future Lexus flagship should be very promising. Good news is: its styling has finally come out of the shadow of Mercedes-Benz, this time really has its own personality. A strong shoulder, low roofline and steeply inclined C-pillars give it a sporty appearance. The car measures 5060 mm long, 1875 mm wide, 1465 mm tall and 2970 mm in wheelbase, close to BMW 7-Series. Also like its rivals, a long wheelbase version will be offered for the first time.
Toyota did not reveal any technical details of the car, just said 4WD and hybrid powerplant will be offered. Insiders said the LS460 will be powered by a new 4.6-ltire direct injection V8 with around 350 horsepower, and a hybrid version of the engine could crank out 400 horsepower and power the LS600h. Expect the car will be launched later next year.
