subject: Want Style, Sophistication And Subtlety In Your Next Car? Take A Look At The Lexus Ls [print this page] As new cars enter the market all of the time, with models to suit everyone's needs, tastes and price tags, one of the most obvious aspects of car design in recent years has been that the bigger and more garish the car is, the more sophisticated people think it is.
Although these types of cars may be suited to some people - those who want to show the world that they can afford these cars, for example - many want all of the luxury that comes with these vehicles but in something a little more refined.
Enter the Lexus LS.
First manufactured in 1989, the LS is a 4 door saloon that is widely regarded as one of Lexus' best vehicles.
With the first generation produced until 1994, the second until 2000 and the third until 2006, the fourth generation is the one that is currently in Lexus dealers and which is not only aesthetically pleasing, but is packed with automobile technology alongside an array of luxurious and comfortable design concepts.
Available in two different models - the 600h and 600h L (the latter of which is the long wheelbase version) - both are able to reach a top speed of 155 miles per hour and have a combined MPG of 30.4, which is very respectable considering the size of the vehicle.
As you would expect from such high profile vehicles, the LS is packed with features, many of which come as standard.
For example, air suspension, traction control, hill start assist control, hard disc drive navigation system and sound library, 8 inch touch screen and 7 spoke 19" alloy wheels are all popular inclusions. If you want something a little more substantial, however, then consider some of the other additional features which are available, such as the rear seat relaxation package for the utmost in passenger comfort.
What many new Lexus LS owners enjoy about the vehicle is that it is available with an innovative intelligent parking assist system. In essence, the system allows for anyone to be able to park safely and effectively in any car parking space, through the use of two sensors on the front bumpers and a rear facing camera.
However, whilst this is enough to help most park, what makes this system so admired is that the car will actually park itself, with guidance from the driver. The way it works is when driving past a parallel parking spot, the car looks at how much space is available and once the driver has selected reverse gear, the car chooses the correct steering angle, meaning the driver simply has to accelerate as they would normally.
The latest generation of the Lexus LS features everything that anyone could ever want in a car. Beauty, space, technology, luxury and sophistication are all combined in such a subtle way that standing from a distance you could mistake the LS for any regular saloon. Get up close, however and you will be left in awe at just how stunning the fourth generation Lexus LS is.
