GS Gas luxury sport sedan comes in three models - GS 350 RWD GS 350 AWD and GS 460 RWD. Optimized for low internal friction, the GS 350's 3.5-liter V6 engine produces 303 horsepower at 6,200 rpm and 274 lb.-ft. of peak torque at 3,600 rpm. A system of direct fuel injection provides much finer mixture control to improve power and fuel efficiency. Dual variable valve timing with intelligence (VVT-i) acts on both intake and exhaust to improve performance across a wide rev range. A smooth-shifting six-speed sequential shift helps when you want.
Lexus GS 460 V8 produces 342 hp at 6,400 rpm and 339 Nm torque at 4100 rpm. GS 460, as the Lexus GS 350, the vehicle meets EPA Ultra Low Emission (ULEV II) certification. Lexus has set the standard for smooth transmission from the beginning, and the GS 460 V8 and eight-speed transmission continue that tradition. The transmission, a six-speed automatic is the Lexus GS 350 models, allowing hands to move, and a driving experience more interesting, and help to maximize performance in certain situations. Lexus GS 460 can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds, the Lexus GS 350 5.7 (5.8 AWD).
Chassis / body / suspension / Tyres / Brakes
Lexus GS combines proven chassis systems, advanced processing technology to provide an accessory dynamic and agile, and the Lexus brand. Double wishbone front suspension and multilink rear suspension to virtually eliminate unwanted wheel angle changes during suspension movement. The result is a natural, confident that it is also lively. 34.1-ft. turning radius (35.4 m from the GS 350 AWD) is comparable to that of smaller cars and help make the GS very agile.
In all GS models, Brake Assist (BA), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) help form a powerful safety front. EBD optimizes brake pressure at each wheel to help minimize body dive or sway during hard braking and cornering. BA is designed to determine if a driver attempting emergency braking and, if the driver was not strong enough on the brake pedal to activate the ABS, it will apply more braking force to pressure the pedal is released.
Aluminum alloy 18-inch wheels are standard on the Lexus GS 460 and GS available for rear-wheel drive Lexus 350, which has the standard 17-inch wheels. For a maximum load capacity, Lexus GS 350 comes standard with 225/50R17 summer tires W-evaluated. All season-17-inch run-flat tires are standard on the Lexus GS 350 AWD model is available on the GS 350 RWD. GS 460 is equipped with summer tires 245/40R18 Z-rated or available throughout the season run flats.
The Lexus GS 350 is available all-wheel drive system improves handling of various driving conditions. A planetary center differential to control and wet-type multi-disc clutch in the power distribution front-rear. The system normally sends 70 percent of available power to the rear wheels to provide the performance benefits of a traditional car rear wheel drive and change the torque-split ratio from 30:70 to 50:50 in response to driving conditions and driver. Electronically controlled AWD system is the strategy of inputs such as steering angle and accelerator activity driver of the vehicle along with the sensor signals from wheel speed and yaw rate.
In GS 460, Lexus Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) integrates and manages a variety of treatment technologies, including VSC. Combining input from a variety of sensors, VDIM is designed to predict the onset of a vehicle skid or slide and help correct the situation with a combination of braking, acceleration control and direction. The integration of the VDIM helps to provide precise management of electronically controlled brakes (ECB), variable steering gear ratio (VGRS), electric power steering (EPS), VSC, ABS, BA, EBD, and torque control electronic throttle.
EPS in the Lexus GS 460 provides precise electric assist using a DC motor built into the steering box. Also in the GS 460, VGRS can vary the steering from 2.7 turns lock to lock for low-speed maneuvers at a slower 3.2 turns lock to lock for highway-speed control. VGRS also provides differential steering control, which helps to correct a delay in steering response, which occurs in all vehicles to help enhance driving feel during lane changes and other maneuvers transition.
Lexus GS 460, the ECB is a by-wire braking. ECB translates brake pedal pressure into electric signals, computer, help provide precise and optimal braking. Electronic control provides quick brake response when needed, to help Lexus GS 460 VDIM to anticipate and help correct skids before they occur. The ECB system is backed by conventional hydraulic brake control in the unlikely event of electronic failure.
Safety / Security
The Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS), standard on the Lexus GS 460 and optional for the GS 350, helps illuminate a curve as the driver controls in it. A system for monitoring tire pressure can detect a critical loss in pressure in one or more tires and alert the driver. Park intuitive help available (IPA) system uses ultrasonic sensors to detect objects close to front of the car and rear bumpers and alerts the driver accordingly. A steering sensor input to better assess changes in distance to objects.
The supplemental restraint system (SRS) in the GS sedans includes variable-force front airbags for driver and front passenger. GS has the standard seat-mounted side airbags for front seats, airbags for driver's knee and front passenger, and curtain airbags front and rear.
