Lexus LS 600H - Just close your eyes for a moment and let your mind wander into the showrooms of the prestige motorcars. By-pass the high performance Ferrari’s etc and home into the luxury end of the market. You pass Mercedes, Aston Martin, Bentleys perhaps even BMW's and then you see the Lexus showroom. At first you may do a double take, Lexus up there in alongside the prestige segment you may query, but take another look at their latest offering, the LS 600h that quite frankly will knock a few dents in other prestige manufacturers egos with this new flagship model
Drawing on thier previous strength of driving refinement, interior luxury, safety and performance, Lexus have added another sting to thier bow in the fact that this is the worlds first full-time-all-wheel drive full hybrid V8 power train that will certainly pull on even the most die hard motorist’s conscious in terms of being environmentally friendly therefore a wannabe purchase.
The rather unassuming exterior shows no signs to would be onlookers of what this car is really all about. In fact during the launch of the LS 600h, in Berlin my co-driver and myself often mistook other cars for the Lexus but take her best side, that of profile and this car accentuates pure unadulterated style that Lexus cars are now being associated with.
