Subtle upgrades or not, the new Lexus LS sedan remains a handsome barge. This is thanks to its recently updated styling features such as a new front bumper incorporating squared air intakes. The spindle grille's color was been changed to dark metallic, while the LED headlamps were upgraded to new three-projector LEDs, and the chrome trim in the rear light clusters had been replaced with piano black. F Sport models have lower radiator grilles that wrap around to the side profile for a more aggressive stance, while the 500h hybrid comes with a blue Lexus badge. The base model has 19-inch wheels, while the F Sport and 500h have 20-inch wheels in unique designs. A glass panorama roof can be optioned onto the gas models, although a power moonroof is standard across the lineup.
As a large luxury barge, the LS comes with impressive dimensions. The total body length is 206.1 inches, housing a 123-inch wheelbase. The overall width with the mirrors folded is 74.8 inches. The rear-wheel-drive models are 57 inches tall, while the all-wheel-drive models sit 57.5 inches from the ground. The lightest model is the standard RWD LS 500 with a curb weight of 4,696 pounds. A twin-turbo F Sport AWD with all the luxury trimmings weighs in at 4,960 lbs and the hybrid weighs 5,093 lbs.

There are a total of nine colors available, including Eminent White Pearl ($500), Iridium ($500), Atomic Silver, Manganese Luster ($595), Caviar, Obsidian, Matador Red, Nightfall Mica, and Ultra White ($500). Certain hues are not available across the lineup, however, with Ultra White only available on F Sport models, while you can't have this model with Eminent White Pearl and Nightfall Mica. The two Mica colors are as exciting as it gets, but the available hues suit the car's upmarket nature well.
