Powertrain and Performance
Quietly working its magic under the hood of this Lexus is a 4.6-liter V8 good for 380 horsepower and 367 pound-feet of torque. Mated to this mill is an eight-speed automatic transmission offering three modes: Normal, Power and Snow. Designed to help the car maintain its traction on snow-covered roads, Snow mode features more frequent upshifts. Switch to Power mode and the transmission spends more time in the lower gears. The mode of choice for everyday driving through Carson City is Normal. Reno drivers will appreciate the practically seamless gear changes.
The LS 460′s 6.4-second 0-60-mph sprint is impressive for the luxury-car segment.
Braking and handling are superb, especially with the Sport package. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Brake Assist helps reduce stopping time and improves control while braking.
Fuel economy is one area in which this Lexus is a clear leader. With EPA estimates of 16 mpg city/24 mpg highway and 19 mpg combined, it’s one of the least thirsty choices in its class.
Interior Design and Special Features
Infinitely adjustable, the LS 460′s front seats deliver consistent support and keep you stable in sharp turns. Front legroom, on the other hand, is very impressive. Wide door openings make it easy to enter and exit this sumptuous luxury machine.
With almost no road and wind noise to speak of, the LS 460′s cabin feels as peaceful as a church. Lexus has long been the brand to beat when it comes to cabin serenity, and this sedan delivers on that promise.
Advanced Parking Guidance is perhaps the sedan’s most famous feature. This system facilitates parallel parking with minimal driver involvement. Once you’ve lined the car up properly to a parking space using the center console display, the car handles acceleration and steering, leaving the driver to work the brakes.
Sparks, Nevada Lexus drivers will find the Advanced Parking Guidance system helpful, though. For example, drivers with mobility problems that hamper their ability to comfortably turn around for a rear view when parking will appreciate it.
The 2010 Lexus GS’s navigation system is easy to use and offers a generously sized screen. Getting the navigation system qualifies you for Lexus Enform, the manufacturer’s new telematics system. One of its more useful amenities is Destination Assist. With it, you can get navigation assistance by calling an agent, who will then download the relevant coordinates to your navigation system for routing.
The backseats in the 2010 Lexus GS are both plush and spacious. Three passengers are easily accommodated, and with two in back, the center armrest provides solid, meaty support. Legroom is quite generous and visibility is outstanding, as the GS’s relatively low beltline makes for clear sight lines.
In real-world usability testing, the LS 460 accommodated a rear-facing child seat with little fuss. Golf clubs and a suitcase were an easy fit for the trunk — not surprising, since with 18 cubic feet of room, it’s one of the larger ones in its class.
Materials’ quality within the cabin are exceptional — the dark wood with its warm natural finish is a standout which Reno Lexus owners will certainly appreciate. Cabin design in the GS is sumptuous. Fit and finish is superb all throughout.
