Lexus has launched the new GS F performance sedan, based on the popular GS model. Armed with a potent 467bhp, 5.0-litre naturally aspirated V8, the GS F has excellent handling developed on the most demanding race circuits, including the legendary Nurburgring. The engine is paired to an eight-speed Sport Direct Shift transmission for maximum sporty performance.

Its elegant yet aggressive styling effectively characterises the essence of Lexus' performance-oriented 'F' brand, highlighted by a bold front profile with race-inspired functional air inlets, triple-beam headlamps, low-slung wide stance, large brake calipers, carbon fibre rear spoiler and quad exhaust rear diffuser.

The GS F features five different selectable Drive Modes, and while it's more than capable of taking on a twisty mountain road, the GS F is still a sedan that's ideal for everyday use. It seats five comfortably in a luxuriously appointed cabin filled with high-tech amenities and advanced safety technologies, including standard Lexus Safety System+.

"As Lexus' 'F' brand vehicles continue to evolve and grow in number, it is important that these models offer differentiated and unique driving characteristics in their segments. The GS F is a very capable performance sedan that offers excitement behind the wheel in all facets of performance driving. It's something that's fun to drive no matter who is driving or where it's being driven. The sedan embraces the virtues of sound, response and limitless power feel to support Lexus' 'F' brand identity of a performance car," said Yukihiko Yaguchi, Emeritus Chief Engineer of the GS F.
