Product Overview

Lexus GS Mark IV (chassis code L10) is an executive sedan in production from 2012 to 2015, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 2.5 to 3.5 liters.
Styling-wise, the Gen4 Lexus GS was a great leap forward. It has both presence and coherence in its styling. Interior build quality has been further improved to that point that many models from the German competition could be put to shame.
However, the L10 GS lost V8 powertrains. Instead, Lexus bet heavily on hybrid. This came as a huge disappointment for enthusiasts.
Lexus has made a good effort in aerodynamics, with a decent 0.26 coefficient of drag to show for it.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the Lexus GS IV comes with double-wishbone at the front and multi-link at the rear. Combined with RWD, this setup provides one of the best handling characteristics and tuning capabilities.
