3 SEAMLESS POWER AND ADVANCED SAFETY Power is conveyed with utmost refinement by means of an Electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission (E-CVT). Not only does this ensure smooth, seamless acceleration but its inherent efficiency also helps improve fuel economy and reduces emissions. Permanent All-Wheel Drive (AWD) delivers power to the road intelligently for maximum traction. Combined with Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM), poised and engaging driving characteristics are ensured. Nowhere is our pursuit of perfection more critical than in the area of safety. ThenewLS600hisspecifiedwithanarrayofsophisticatedpassiveandactive safety technologies as standard. State-of-the-art pre-crash safety features, including advanced obstacle detection and driver monitoring, can also be selected. THE TECHNOLOGY OF COMFORT A refined sense of hospitality is a defining feature of Japanese culture. However, we do not believe in ostentatious luxury, rather a more elegant interpretation where advanced technology is tailored to anticipate and meet customer needs.

7 LS 600h HYBRID LUXURY AND PERFORMANCE In2007,Lexustakesdrivingtoahigherlevelwiththelaunchofanewflagship, thels600h.atitsheartisthemostpowerfulhybriddriveyetseen.itdelivers an unprecedented combination of thrilling acceleration, quiet running, impressive fuel economy and lower emissions. In the LS 600h, great power comes hand in hand with great elegance and refinement for a sublimely smooth and virtually silent drive. And, from its beautiful LED headlights to its sculpted tailpipes, the LS 600h is shaped by the captivating aesthetics of our L-finesse design philosophy. The phenomenal performance of the LS 600h is made possible by combining a 5.0-litre V8 direct-injection petrol engine with a high-output electric motor. Working together in an intelligent and seamless partnership, these two power sources produce an output of around 440bhp, rivalling that of most 12-cylinder engines yet with the economy and emissions of a six-cylinder petrol engine.

9 TOUCH OR VOICE COMMAND AND INTELLIGENT PARKING The LS 600h is fitted with the most intuitive and advanced navigation system available today. An eight-inch full-colour LCD touch screen provides clear and sharp graphics, with the convenience of either touch screen control or voice activation.theinformationandcommunicationpackagealsoincludesbluetooth mobile phone connectivity*.
