Lexus LS facelift debuts with new features

Lexus has introduced the updated LS sedan in the international market. The car comes with a minor facelift and gets additional features.

While, the Lexus LS retains its spindle grille, the headlamps and tail lights have been slightly tweaked. On the inside, the car is now offered with a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment head-unit that has Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. The position of some of the switchgear including the buttons for the heated steering wheel and seats has also been changed. The LS also comes with Lexus TeamMate driver assist features and Adaptive Variable Suspension.

The engine options offered in the Lexus LS remain unchanged. The car comes with a 3.5-litre, twin-turbo V6 petrol engine that produces 410 BHP and a 350 BHP hybrid powertrain.

Media reports suggest that the updated Lexus LS could be launched around mid-2021. The car will compete with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, BMW 7 Series and the Audi A8L.
