Joining the likes of Lexus' new gen LS is the new LS 500 F Sport, which will sit
under the spotlight at the brand's stand in New York. The latest addition to the new LS family will
be available on both the LS 500 and LS 500h.
This means that it will be powered by either the new
3.5-liter V6 twin-turbo engine, producing 415 hp and 600 Nm of
torque, or the 3.5-liter V6 working together with two electric motors that
produce a combined output of 354 horses.
Toyota's luxury brand doesn’t have a lot to say
about it for now, except that it will "capitalize on the responsiveness
and agility of the new LS Line". Expect the same raft of
upgrades as on other F Sport models, such as more aggressive styling on the
outside and sportier touches in the cabin, along with a tuned chassis with
changes to the suspension and steering for a more engaging drive.
We'll know everything there about it on April 12,
when it will be formally presented at the 2017 New York Auto Show, at the
Javits Convention Center.
