New Inspiration Series model, limited to 300 units in the U.S.
Safety System+ A package renamed Advanced Safety package
Part of the fifth LS generation introduced for 2018
Two years after its comprehensive redesign the Lexus LS is still quite the head turner. But the futuristic look doesn't stop with the sculpted sheet metal. Inside, the LS pushes the luxury car boundaries with intricate wood inlays and even cut glass inserts. But don't let the futuristic look make you think this LS is anything other than a traditional Lexus: smooth, silent and exceedingly comfortable.
In addition to the myriad standard luxury features, the LS can be equipped with extras like a 24-inch head-up display, 28-way power adjustable front seats, a panoramic sunroof and even rear seats with 22-way adjustability with heating and ventilation. More traditional luxury car amenities, such as an excellent audio system, air suspension and all-wheel drive can also be added.
Lexus isn't the only manufacturer to take the luxury sedan seriously. The Mercedes-Benz S-Class has long been the benchmark of the segment while BMW's legendary 7-Series offers a more modern bent and Porsche's Panamera has the performance bases covered. But while the Lexus LS doesn't offer the same power and performance options, it is unique and built to the same high quality standards.
The Lexus LS 500 does an admirable job as an executive sedan. It has an exquisite cabin filled with high-end materials and premium features. It's priced competitively too, offering good value for money in this prestigious segment. Its technology, however, falls behind class leaders.
How does the LS 500 drive?
7.0
The turbocharged V6 has plenty of grunt. Our test LS 500 accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds, which is an average time compared to other large luxury sedans with a six-cylinder engine.
Braking is less impressive, mostly because the pedal lacks the feel we usually associate with stopping confidence. Shifts from the 10-speed automatic are incredibly smooth under full-throttle acceleration, but the transmission can be a bit slow to downshift when asking for passing power on the highway.
The steering is appropriately light for the leisurely nature of the LS, but you can dial in some extra steering weight by switching to one of two Sport drive modes. The LS is stable around turns, but this is primarily a luxury cruiser. The tires have relatively low grip and squeal noisily when you start pressing.
How comfortable is the LS 500?
8.0
The optional adjustable air suspension produces a cushy ride on almost any road. Speed bumps are hardly noticeable. Road, wind and engine noise is virtually nonexistent.
Seat comfort is excellent, with the front seats offering a wide range of adjustments in addition to heating, ventilation and massage. The middle rear seat is mostly only for short trips, though, because it's pretty stiff and uncomfortable.
How’s the interior?
7.0
While the LS' interior looks and feels top-notch, the score is dragged down significantly in this category because of the challenging user interface. Many vehicle settings are located in on-screen menus, and the infotainment controller is hard to use.
There's plenty of space for four passengers, with lots of headroom and legroom. The driving position is excellent thanks to a wide range of adjustability from the steering wheel and the driver's seat. The large doors make getting into the cabin easy, but getting out is a little tricky due to the wide doorsills.
How’s the tech?
7.0
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, but the standard Lexus Enform app suite isn't very intuitive. Connecting to your smartphone may take a few attempts. But once you're hooked up, using the native system on your phone is a breeze.
Lots of standard safety features are present. But the adaptive cruise control is slow to react to traffic and overly conservative with its following distances. The voice controls don't understand much in the way of natural language, but there's an easy-to-learn series of prompts. The optional Mark Levinson audio system provides excellent sound quality, though the volume output is a bit lower than we expected.
How’s the storage?
8.0
At 17 cubic feet, the LS 500's trunk is one of the largest in the class. It accommodates plenty of luggage, though its trapezoid shape (it tapers inward near the rear seats) can be somewhat limiting. With bins under the armrests and cutouts in each door, there are plenty of places for small items inside.
For installing child safety seats, there are two easy-access anchors on each of the outboard seats. But reaching the upper tethers for car seats can be tricky since they're set far back on the rear deck and there's not much clearance between them and the roof.
How economical is the LS 500?
7.5
The rear-wheel-drive LS 500 has an EPA-estimated 23 mpg combined (19 city/30 highway). With all-wheel drive, that number drops to 21 mpg combined. These figures are about average for an executive sedan with a V6. Our all-wheel-drive tester achieved 21.9 mpg on our 115-mile evaluation route, indicating that EPA's estimate is realistic.
Is the LS 500 a good value?
8.0
The Lexus LS offers many of the same decadent features as its German rivals but at a lower cost. Our test vehicle, loaded up with options, came to a total of $106,555. That's not a small number but you get a lot more for your money. The cabin is full of top-notch materials. Build quality is excellent. Our test car had no perceivable panel gaps or trim inconsistencies.
The LS 500 comes with Lexus' four-year/50,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a five-year/70,000-mile powertrain warranty, along with complimentary roadside assistance for four years/unlimited miles.
Wildcard
8.0
Thanks to its giant grille and daring cabin design, the LS easily differentiates itself from the competition. It's also powerful and smooth. But the car's mediocre handling limits your ability to really have any fun when driving.
Which LS 500 does Edmunds recommend?
The Lexus LS comes in one fairly well-equipped trim level but various option packages can be added to suit your budget or luxury requirements. We consider the upgraded Mark Levinson audio system to be a must-have as well as the air suspension and the Safety System+ A for its stop-and-go adaptive cruise control and front cross-traffic alert.
Lexus LS 500 models
The 2020 Lexus LS is offered in only one trim but offers a bevy of stand-alone options as well as option packages that allow buyers a fair amount of customization. But only one engine and transmission combo is available with the LS 500, a twin-turbocharged V6 engine (416 horsepower, 442 lb-ft of torque) mated to a 10-speed automatic. The LS can be had with either rear- or all-wheel drive.
Standard feature highlights include 19-inch wheels, an adaptive suspension, LED headlights, a sunroof, hands-free trunk operation, power-closing doors, leather upholstery, power-adjustable heated and ventilated front seats, and a power rear sunshade.
Technology features include a 12.3-inch central display, a navigation system, a trackpad-style interface, Apple CarPlay and a 12-speaker audio system. Finally, standard driver aids include blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, forward collision mitigation, lane keeping assist and adaptive cruise control.
Singular options include air suspension, adaptive LED headlights, a panoramic glass roof, a powerful audio system, and a heated wood- and leather-trimmed steering wheel. Option packages range from the Safety System+ A package, which includes driver aids such as adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, up through the Luxury and Executive packages that add upscale touches for both front and rear passengers as well as an assortment of interior trim materials and designs.
MSRP excludes delivery, processing and handling fee of $1,025, which may be subject to change at any time. Excludes taxes, title, license and optional equipment. Dealer price will vary.
Have had both BMW and Mercedes and both were mechanically horrible, and certainly not comfortable. These are strictly performance cars living on that reputation. If you are looking for true LUXURY then you need to look elsewhere. My definition of luxury is comfort, soft leather, 28 way adjustable seats, easy entrance and exit, beautiful exterior and interior, and knowing I'll be able to drive this car for years and years without having my 2year old car's air conditioning go out on a summer vacation. Just bought a Lexus LS 500 and love, love, love it. Had an ES 350 for 4 years before that and it was the most carefree, comfortable car we ever owned
5/5 stars, Life ain’t a trial run.. go for it

Ok. The touch pad is a little tricky. The rest of it hits the mark..I just traded the Mercedes S class for the LS and granted they are different machines but Luxury is Luxury..Absolutely no buyers remorse and driving the Lexus still makes me feel like a unadulterated spoiled brat...it all works for me..

Inspiration Series 4dr Sedan AWD (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 10A)
I was a long term Lexus driver with my last car being the LS460L, which I had for nine years and would have been happy to drive it another nine except for the jackass that did a four-lane swerve on the freeway without looking. I had to wait for the 500 to get delivered to western Canada, and it was worth the wait. The touchpad was tricky, but you get used to it. If you like power and pick up, you will love the 500. The interior is pure luxury, and the sound system is second to none. One surprise is the run-flat tires, so no spare. They are pricey, so if I had a complaint that would be it. Best bang for your buck and years of carefree driving. An extremely reliable car. The longer I own this car, the happier I am. Can't forget the outstanding Lexus after purchase care
4/5 stars, Awesome

Have driven this 2020 model for about a month now ... The only drawback is the infotainment system as others have said but I am getting used to it and its not too bad actually.. The car is a dream to drive and especially fun in sport plus mode. Gas mileage in town with AC = 18.5 avg. The car is quiet and comfortable especially the seats... Love it
[MUSIC PLAYING] MARK TAKAHASHI: I'm standing next to the all new Lexus LS 500. This is the fifth generation LS. Now, this all started in 1989 when Lexus set the automotive world on its head with the first LS. It was groundbreaking. No one really had the audacity to think that a Japanese company could, number one, create a luxury brand. And number two, create something that was so good. Now, this one isn't nearly as groundbreaking. It's more an evolution. But there are some really good bits about this. And there's a few that I could do without as well. So let's go take a look. To be perfectly honest, I haven't been a big fan of the Lexus spindle grill. However, on this new LS, it does seem to work much better. I like the sculpting. I like all the bevelling. It's aggressive. It's slightly sporty. It's not trying too hard in some ways. Maybe the grill is a little too horsey still. But there is a lot of detail there. And there's a certain elegance to it as well. Like a lot of luxury vehicles out there, you have a power trunk lid. And it's hands free, as long as you have the key in your pocket. Now, the trunk, it's not as big as some of the luxury flagship sedans I've seen out there. But it will certainly hold all your stuff. There are some nice cutouts behind the wheel arches that will definitely get two full sized golf bags in. Now, you also have the button up here, like you normally do with all power trunk lifts to close it. But it's the same operation. That's convenient. So the interior of the LS 500 is really well done. The design has a lot of organic flowing shapes. But it's not overly done. Materials' quality throughout is really quite good as well. So as you'd expect from a flagship luxury sedan, the ride quality is really nice and compliant and smooth. It's fairly quiet. I do hear some road noise. But it's not that big of a problem. And you have the selector up here for the different normal sport modes and custom modes, rather than down here. So you could just kind of adjust it on the fly, rather than having to look down and get distracted that way. The one bummer though is they're still using this trace pad. Now, they're using the latest version of the trace pad, that they have in the LC 500, but even that, it's probably one of the worst systems, quite honestly, to use for infotainment. It's fine if you're parked. But when you're moving, it just takes a lot of effort to make sure you're on the right hotspot here and they're just kind of bouncing all over the place. Really, truly I wish they would just go to a regular touch screen, or even the knob that all the Germans are using. As far as seat comfort is concerned, they're pretty firmly padded. They're not too cushiony and pillowy. So it feels a little bit like an Audi in that way. There's not a lot of side bolstering. But one cool thing about the side bolstering is, when you put it in park, it sort of dips down, so you don't have to climb over it. So I'm on this curving valley road here. I can feel a little bit of body roll, but it's kind of what you'd expect from any luxury sedan. Throw it in sport plus mode and it dials way way back. But then, it also starts stiffening up the ride. And the steering also wakes up in the sport modes. You have manual control over the transmission, if you need it. But as I was driving this tight, twisty road in, I was surprised, and impressed, by how smartly it was downshifting as I was hitting the brakes and going into a turn. I had the opportunity open a few times and kind of carve through a few fun turns. And I can say, yes, this is actually kind of fun to drive. I'm not a fan of the engine noise. My guess is that it's being piped in through the speakers. I'll have to verify that. But it's a little too loud for my taste, especially for such a big luxury sedan. Earlier, I drove the hybrid LS 500H. and I was actually quite impressed by it. It was responsive and it had plenty of passing power. The brakes also felt like a typical car, not so much a hybrid, where you get a little softness and a little lack of feel and response. It was just fine. So because of that, I wouldn't be too surprised to see the hybrid lead for sales. In front of me, I have a really, really big head up display. I've got navigation. I've got some of the safety features, as well as the driver assistance in the middle. It's tack sharp. And visually, it looks like it's half a foot in from of the nose of the car. So focus wise, it's really easy to read and the alerts will pop up right in your vision. Easily one of the better head up displays. So here I am in the backseat of the LS 500. And this one is optioned with the executive rear seat, so a lot more comfort to be had back here. However, much like the infotainment system up front, the one back here is about as easy to use, which is not quite a good thing. In any case, just demonstrate for you right now, that you can fold the front seat all the way forward, the headrest tucks in, and it all starts moving forward like that. And you just have a ton of leg room. You have this ottoman that will come out, nice little leg rest. So really and truly, you have a level of luxury back here that would be akin to, let's say, business class before they went to the fold flat sleeper beds. Now, you can still recline quite a bit. It'd be pretty easy to doze off back here like this. So you do have all the climate control stuff back here, ventilated seats, heated seats, a full body massage, full body refresh. Now, it's not like an aggressive shiatsu massage or anything. It's a nice rolling action. And you have the same functions in the front seats. There's the rear sunshade. There's my sunshade. Under here, two USB ports. That's pretty good. Decent size cup holders. And materials' quality, it's just like the front, impeccable. So with Mark Levinson surround sound system option, you even have some speakers up in the headliner. And these speakers are just kind of everywhere. It's an all enveloping system. And it sounds amazing. If you're an audiofile, in my opinion, this is one of the better ones. So those are my initial impressions of the all new Lexus LS 500. In terms of price, it sits just above the new offerings from Genesis, especially the G90. However, it's quite a bit less than the typical German flagships, like the Audi A8, Mercedes S-Class, and BMW 7 series. It is a marked improvement when it does come to performance. This thing is actually quite fun to drive. My recommendation is the hybrid. You get better fuel economy, obviously, and very little sacrifice as a result.

2018 Lexus LS 500 Review
NOTE: This video is about the 2018 Lexus LS 500, but since the 2020 Lexus LS 500 is part of the same generation, our earlier analysis still applies.
Take a spin in the all-new 2018 Lexus LS 500 with Edmunds Senior Writer Mark Takahashi to see if this fifth-generation evolution lives up to expectations. The previous LS was praiseworthy for its comfort and craftsmanship but was knocked for its dull driving feel and slow acceleration. The new LS maintains the best parts of its predecessor and overcomes its drawbacks with engaging driving dynamics and an appropriate amount of power for a car this size.

Lexus LS 500 vs. the competition
2020 Lexus LS 500
2019 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
Lexus LS 500 vs. Mercedes-Benz S-Class
The long-running benchmark of the luxury sedan class, the current Mercedes-Benz S-Class is difficult to fault. But if keeping your luxury sedan under six figures is a priority, that might prove difficult with the big Benz. And while the Mercedes does offer a range of engine options and a thoroughly modern interior, the interior of the Lexus still makes quite a statement.
Just a decade ago, comparing the Audi A8 to the Lexus would have been a bit of a mismatch in favor of the Audi. But times have changed. As Audi struggles to merge cutting-edge technology with elegant performance, Lexus has focused solely on luxury and style and now offers a truly premium experience. Interestingly, both vehicles suffer from frustrating infotainment systems.
The Genesis G90 is a bit of a bargain in the full-size luxury sedan segment. It undercuts most of its rivals in price yet still offers an excellent ride and well-isolated cabin. It also comes with an optional V8 engine, which is something the Lexus LS does not offer. But the interior is nowhere near as special as it needs to be, lacking style and proper luxury trimmings.
The Edmunds experts tested the 2020 LS 500 both on the road and at the track, giving it a 7.6 out of 10. You probably care about Lexus LS 500 fuel economy, so it's important to know that the LS 500 gets an EPA-estimated 21 mpg to 23 mpg, depending on the configuration. What about cargo capacity? When you're thinking about carrying stuff in your new car, keep in mind that the LS 500 has 17.0 cubic feet of trunk space. And then there's safety and reliability.

Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you
that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make
higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand,
can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a
new car every three years or so.
