Overview
The 2016 Lexus LS 600h L Sedan fares well in the fullsize sedan segment. Adding $38,135 to the price of the standard LS 460 L AWD gasoline variant, the LS 600h L hybrid carries a base price of MSRP $120,440 and is offered in a single trim. The engine on service here is a familiar 5.0L V8 supported by a 288-Volt hybrid system. Mated to a continuously variable automatic transmission, it makes 438 horsepower and 385 lb-ft of torque. The combined fuel economy improves from 18 MPG on the standard gasoline variant to 20 MPG on the hybrid variant, making the increase in sticker price worth it. Performance of the LS 600h L hybrid also improves here, with the car accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 6.4 seconds. Lexus offers the same 9 colors for the LS 600h L hybrid. The LS 600h L has no direct hybrid competitors while you could consider the Mercedes-Benz S 550 PHEV Sedan or the Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid alternatively.
