Lexus to reveal all-new 2013 LS flagship sedan at the end of July

In a very short statement released by Lexus on its official website, the carmaker has announced the the world premierre for its 2013 LS flagship sedan. The premierre will take place in a special event, strictly by invitation only in San Francisco on July 30th.

The carmaker has not released any official pictures but said the lineup will consist of the LS 460, LS 460 F SPORT, LS 460 L and LS 600h L. Reports suggest that this would mean that engine optiuons will be carried over from the existing models. Regardless, the current LS 460 has a 4.6-litre V8 engine that produces 357bhp and 497Nm of torque. Likewise, the LS 600h uses a 5.0-litre V8 and an electric motor to create a combined output of 438bhp.

The LS 460 F SPORT is a new addition to the lineup and F-Sport version of the LS will boast similar chassis and styling upgrades to the new GS F-Sport, which comes equipped with an aero package, larger wheels, bespoke interior trim, a sports-tuned suspension and the Lexus Dynamic Handling (LDH) four-wheel steering system.
