Lexus LS 460L

Anyone will be amazed to see the figure of LS front bumper now has a slightly different design thanks to the curve of a more assertive. While the bladed chrome grille 'tipped' with a smile and not just a straight line. At the rear, stoplamp and license plate holder and the muffler is different from before. Both sides also obtain a new mirror design with integrated turn signal following a 18-inch ten-spoke rims new.

Features art and may be the only one in Indonesia is the Intelligent Parking Assist (IPA). A feature that is actually redundant for use in Indonesia because most of the Lexus LS owners use the services of a driver. But look at it this way, the presence of these features make it potentially LS owners want to drive alone because of the convenience offered.

The way it works is quite simple. The system uses sensors located on each side of the vehicle, as well as a rear camera to display the view behind the car is observed from the touch screen. Gently pass through 'space' parking lot and then stop and choose 'R'. The sensors will read and calculate whether the space is large enough for parking.

When the driver confirm and release the brake, then the LS automatic driving slowly toward the parking lot that has been determined. The driver remains in control for speeds of up to a total stop. IPA feature can be used for serial or parallel parking, and it looks very easy especially for a car over this five-meter.

Other sophistication of the LS 460 L is the use of 8-speed automatic transmission first in the world. Girboksnya lightweight and 'compact', as well as the use of hydraulic control technology that makes shifting very smooth, fast as well as providing fuel frugality.

Like the exterior changes are minimal, the interior underwent a similar fate. If I may say, almost nothing is changed except the addition of eco indicator for driving more efficiently on the instrument panel.

Machine still uses the old version because it is still providing adequate performance, both power and efficiency. Capacity of 4608 cc 375 hp V8 spraying power and torque of 493 Nm. Acceleration of 5.7 seconds was achieved quite reach 100 km / h from rest. [Arief Junor]
