2025 Lexus LS gets another price bump, starts at $81,685

The 2025 Lexus LS sees yet another price increase for the new model year, but no significant updates.

Pricing starts at $81,685 for the LS 500 version, including the $1,350 destination fee. That’s a $1,000 increase over the 2024 model year, which in turn saw prices increase by $3,100 over the 2023 model year, to $80,685.

LS 500 models are powered by a 3.4-liter twin-turbo V-6 producing 416 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque, enough to get this big luxury sedan from 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds, according to Lexus. A 10-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive are standard, while an all-wheel drive system with a Torsen limited-slip rear differential is available for $3,250.

An F Sport grade remains available, but it adds more comfort than sport to Lexus’ flagship. Feature highlights include a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, a panoramic camera system, and aluminum interior trim, as well as 20-inch wheels and a different version of the controversial Lexus spindle grille. The LS 500 F Sport costs $85,825 in rear-wheel drive form, but as with the 2024 model, adding all-wheel drive only costs $2,450.

The LS 500h hybrid starts at $116,500 with destination. It uses a 3.5-liter V-6 and two-motor hybrid system to generate 354 hp, which is sent to all four wheels. Hybrid models also come standard with Lexus Teammate, which allows for a few minutes of hands-free driving on mapped highways and helps with parking.

The 2025 Lexus LS arrives in U.S. dealerships before the end of this year, which marks the sedan’s 35th anniversary. While it launched the Lexus brand, the LS has received less attention recently. The current generation has been around since the 2018 model year with a handful of updates, and it’s unclear when we’ll see a new version.
