Lexus LS Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2003–2006) — Third Generation Restyling
The restyled third-generation Lexus LS is a luxury sedan focused on quiet, comfortable travel. Its powertrain makes most sense if you value smooth acceleration and relaxed cruising.
The gasoline V8 Lexus LS engine delivers power progressively, while the automatic transmission reduces effort in traffic and keeps cruising relaxed. Rear-wheel drive completes the drivetrain layout. If you are considering a used example, check for smooth gear changes both when cold and after warming up.
