2020 Lexus LS 500h Review
Pros
- Library-quiet at all speeds and on all roads
- Ride quality is supple and impervious to poor road surfaces
- Interior design, materials and construction are world-class
Cons
- Touchpad infotainment controller is an ergonomic fumble
- General lack of sportiness gives advantage to some German rivals
What's new
- The LS 500h carries over essentially unchanged
- Part of the fifth LS generation introduced for 2018
Overview
Some of Lexus' best traits are on display in the hybrid version of its flagship sedan, the LS 500h. For starters, it offers a stunningly crafted and artfully finished interior with a suitably big rear seat. The LS also hovers down the road with a ride so smooth that it can feel like it's riding on clouds.

The LS comes with most of the in-car technology we expect in a premium luxury sedan. Apple CarPlay smartphone integration is standard, as is a Lexus+Alexa app that delivers the voice-activated features of Amazon's Alexa into the LS 500h. Lexus' infotainment interface, however, is problematic. Many of the car's controls are buried within the infotainment system's complex menu structure, and the touchpad controller is hard to use while driving.
The LS 500h has one of the most complex transmissions sold today, and its occasionally ill-timed shifts aren't befitting of a luxury car. We prefer the regular LS 500 in this regard. Overall, though, the LS 500h is worth checking out if you want a smooth-riding luxury sedan that also gets high fuel economy.
2020 Lexus LS 500h trim level differences
As Lexus' flagship sedan, the 2020 LS 500h comes loaded with a variety of luxury, technology and safety features. Several option packages are available to further add to the LS experience. Compare the 2020 Lexus LS 500h trim levels in-depth.
Which LS 500h trim does Edmunds recommend?
The LS 500h comes with most of the standard equipment we expect in a flagship sedan. Several packages are offered to add to its amenities, however. If the LS' 16-way power-adjustable front seats aren't enough for you, then the 28-way seats offered with any of the three primary option packages should suffice. We also recommend getting the Safety System+ A package for its enhanced adaptive cruise control and automatic emergency braking systems.
