2018 Lexus LS 500 F SPORT Gallery

Take one huge luxury sedan, send it back to the engineers with the request for more cornering prowess, and you might end up with this. The 2018 Lexus LS 500 F SPORT – and its LS 500h F SPORT hybrid sibling – are making their debut at the NYIAS 2017 this week. While power may be unchanged from the regular cars, how they handle it is.

Indeed, Lexus says the big four-door should behave more like a sports car in the curves than the luxury limo it resembles. Outside, there's a new grille and larger vents, along with F SPORT badging. 20-inch wheels are standard, and Ultra White paint is an F SPORT exclusive.

Inside, the LFA's trick sliding gages re-appear on the LS 500 F SPORT, and there are new sports seats and a matching steering wheel. Ultrasuede is used on the seats and headlining, along with leather with an exclusive stitching pattern. The RWD V6TT car can optionally be had with variable gear ratio steering and active rear steering; all versions get upgraded brakes.
