While the 2018 Lexus LS 500 will share many mechanical features of the standard LS 500 (including the all-new 415 horsepower 3.5-liter V-6 engine which offers 442 pound-feet of torque and premium fun), its chassis is designed to deliver a more sporty and breathtaking driving experience.  Tuned for engaging handling, the 2018 Lexus LS 500 F SPORT features Lexus’ latest Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) technology.
