The Lexus LS 500 F Sport will make its debut at the New York Auto Show

Lexus has a new model ready that will join the LS 500 range, whose new models we were able to see at the beginning of the year. This range currently consists of the LS 500 and LS 500h, the hybrid version of the model. But at the New York Auto Show another version will debut, sportier and more dynamic, named LS 500 F Sport.

This version can be included in either of the two previous ones, so both can benefit from this update, which will give the combustion engine more power and efficiency. Thus, the LS 500 will be able to use a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine, producing 415 CV and a maximum torque of 600 Nm, while in the case of the hybrid, this powertrain, without the twin-turbo, is complemented by two electric motors that together deliver 315 CV.

The Premium brand of Toyota has not offered further details about this version, although we all hope it will be closer to the rest of the models that have been included under the brand’s F Sport badge. This means the LS 500 range will benefit from a series of improvements both in terms of styling and performance. In other words, the car will have a more aggressive look and more sporty elements inside.

Another novelty this new variant may have is a tuned chassis, with changes to the suspension and steering, which will make it a more attractive model than its two siblings in the range. Specific data is not yet available for comparison, as the brand is keeping all these details until it presents the car, once the Show opens on April 12. We only have one image, which you can see at the top of the article.
