New Lexus LS 600H new-2016 VS Lexus ES 300H new-2016 video review. \r
The Lexus LS 600h L is an extended-wheelbase luxury hybrid sedan that brings a few compromises. The latter however will already be quite familiar to those whove experienced other upscale Lexus green machines. The most significant concerns fuel efficiency. With a 20 mpg combined EPA fuel economy estimate, the LS 600h L is no Prius -- in f, it barely beats the mileage offered by the otherwise similar and much less expensive non-hybrid LS 460 L.\r
Furthermore, theres no appreciable gain in performance. The LS 600h L teams a gasoline V8 with a duo of electric motors to offer power that Lexus claims is comparable to that of a V12. However, that additional power is offset by the added weight of the hybrid components. In the end, the cars only real advantage over the regular LS is its Super Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle (SULEV) rating. Is that enough to justify its hefty price premium? We dont think so, and recommend checking out the hybrid or diesel-powered version of Mercedes cheaper S-Class instead.\r
Current Lexus LS 600h L\r
Powering the current Lexus 600h L is a 5.0-liter V8 that produces 389 horsepower and 385 pound-feet of torque is coupled to two electric motor/generators that boost output to 438 hp. All of this power is routed to an all-wheel-drive system via a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Emphasis is more on providing stronger performance rather than ultimate fuel economy. As such, this Lexus goes from zero to 60 in a claimed 5.5 seconds, impressive yet only about a half second swifter than an all-wheel-drive LS 460. And fuel economy, at 20 mpg combined, is only two mpg better than that of the LS 460 L with AWD.\r
The 2016 Lexus ES 300h brings stellar fuel efficiency to the entry-level luxury sedan segment. Great fuel economy and Lexus pampering: Its a win-win situation.\r
The 2016 Lexus ES 350 gets improved sound deadening in the cabin, a number of minor interior tweaks, a new grille and various other exterior styling updates. Bi-LED headlights are a new option, and a new safety package features a mildly revised version of the Lexus pre-collision system with pedestrian-detection capability.
