Lexus New York: 2008 Lexus LS 600h L First Drive

[Lexus New York]

The LS series is the Lexus flagship sedan, its most expensive and technologically advanced vehicle. As the flagship of flagships, the LS 600h L is packed with everything that Lexus knows how to do, including a complicated all-wheel drive hybrid powertrain. It also builds on the inherent luxuriousness of the LS itself. The 600 is available only in the long-wheelbase version, and it has been specially trimmed for its $104,000 price tag with touches such as a hand-sewn leather dash and wood inserts on the grab handles, and is the only LS in any form available in all-wheel drive. There are exclusive colors and trim combinations, including the inelegantly named “Launch Edition,” which combines the Smokey Granite Mica paint with an alabaster and black interior.
