Total Luxury and Cutting-Edge Technology in One Brilliant Package: The 2011 Lexus LS600h L

Lexus proudly presented the first full-hybrid V8 vehicle in 2006. Five years later, Lexus's LS 600h L continues to be one of the forerunners of performance and comfort.

Powered by a 5.0L V8 engine, two motor generators, and a hybrid Ni-MH battery, the LS 600h L will get you where you want to go swiftly and in style, with super low emissions to boot. Innovations in safety and function abound in this model. Don't fret if parking isn't your strong suit; Lexus's Advanced Parking Guidance System (APGS) can parallel-park or reverse-park the vehicle into the spot of your choice at the touch of a button. Also equipped in this model are the world's first low beam 3+1 projector LED beam headlights.

Built to last and to look amazing, this vehicle is constructed of a high-strength steel alloy and sheet metal which is sanded by hand twice during the paint application process. A sleek, elegant cabin with blue accents in the headlamps and proud LS 600h L lettering make this car look as good as it drives.

With all the upscale interior equipment, you might confuse this model for a limousine! A heated steering wheel, charcoal-activated clean air dust and pollen filter, LED interior lighting, and a power-tilt-and-slide moonroof give you such remarkable comfort that you may never want to get out of this car. Sit back, relax, and listen to your favorite tunes in high definition thanks to a Mark Levinson Reference Surround Sound Audio System with 19 speakers and iPod/USB input plugs.

The Lexus LS 600h L also features full-time all wheel drive and two-stage electronically-controlled Continuously Variable Transmission with eight-speed sequential shift.
