Should I Buy the 2025 Lexus LS?
The Lexus LS is less expensive than its German competitors, and its non-hybrid models undercut the price of the Genesis G90. If you’re looking for a bit more eco-friendliness in your large luxury sedan (and don’t mind paying a significant premium for it), the LS 500h gets an EPA-estimated 25 mpg combined. However, in any of its versions, the LS’s ride and handling isn’t as polished as most rivals in its class.
