Finer details
The Lexus LS 500 has a design that demands attention. From the spindle grille that catches the eye, the three-dimensional front-end draws it further, making it dynamic even when stationary. The design has been inspired by traditional Japanese etching, more than 5,000 individual surfaces, all arranged by hand, and 5,000 individual facets, each precisely calibrated to catch and reflect light. This takes eight hours a day, over six months to perfect. So, give a little appreciation and attention to its design details when going to test drive the LS.
Triple-Beam LED headlamps
Casting a striking presence, but also personifying a balance between sophistication and safety is the Ultra-compact Triple-Beam LED headlamps. The intelligent highbeam system can automatically switch highbeams to low-beams when it detects vehicles ahead. And its unique visual arrangement is a new approach to headlamp design, improving both the breadth and dimension of light distribution. The aerodynamically-sculpted rear LED taillamps help direct airflow rearward and away from the vehicle sides for optimum handling and control.
