| Road Test |
After a complete design for 2007, the big, luxurious LS 460 is largely carried over into 2008. The 2008 Lexus LS 460 is available in two body styles, including the manageably sized LS 460 and the long-wheelbase LS 460 L, which stretches the backseat area five inches, to limousine-like dimensions--possibly appealing to those who have others do the driving. There’s also a hybrid flagship model, the LS 600h L, which we cover in a separate review.
