Lexus Announces End of the LS Line with LS500 Heritage Edition

2026 LEXUS LS: A HOMAGE TO THE ORIGINAL

Paging Badhobz... Badhobz to the Lexus dealership...

Quote:
Lexus unveils the 2026 LS 500 AWD Heritage Edition as a final year tribute to the car that launched the brand. Limited to 250 units in the United States, this model is offered as mono spec finished in the striking new Lexus-first exterior color, Ninety Noir, over an LS-first Rioja Red interior.

Starting MSRP of $99,280 (includes Delivery, Processing and Handling fee)

PLANO, Texas (Sep. 26, 2025) – Over the past 36 years, the Lexus LS has defined what a flagship luxury sedan should be: the perfect balance of performance, innovation, and timeless comfort. For 2026, the LS 500 AWD Heritage Edition arrives as a thoughtfully curated, mono spec model with elevated style and substance. Limited to just 250 units, this serves as a tribute to a model that has defined luxury for over three decades—combining timeless design, innovative technology, and unparalleled craftsmanship into one exceptional automotive icon. This special edition is a statement to the LS’s remarkable journey, celebrating the craftsmanship, innovation, and passion that have defined it from day one.

meh. cant hold a candle to the older V8 LS's

to be honest i havent seen a modern day LS on our roads here. Absolutely nobody buys them... why would you? Besides the higher-than-average material quality, everything else is very meh. Id take a fugly 7 series BMW over this.

Skip to 7:50. he says its version 1 of this new engine and its pretty shit.
Skip to 13:00. The interior is shit. The 2018 interior was beautiful.. now the new one is just a tacked-on ipad afterthought.

Yea I just watched the car care nut video a few days ago and it's sad. I kinda miss my UL but it was really boring to drive.

I read an accord has more rear legroom than the LS, so what's the point.

Even my friends kei Van has more rear leg room.

Lexus seems to be turning into Toyota's Acura rather than Toyota's competitor to the German luxury brands in that they are increasingly just dressed up Toyota's (TX, ES, NX, RX, UX). Considering how much more volume they sell I'm surprised/disappointed that they don't have the R&D money to build out more products that are competitive with the Germans. Maybe they just don't want to and are choosing a different niche but it seems awfully unambitious for a company like Toyota.

I get Honda not investing in Acura but I don't get Toyota not investing in Lexus.

theres rumor that they are going to separate the performance lineup into its own thing (GR)

So the new GR Supra, GR Celica, GR Corolla, GR GT3 <-- this was supposed to be the LFR or whatever will now be sold as part of Lexus dealerships. Kind of makes sense, but also kind of stupid.... like its just going to diminish the lexus brand that much more.

Eventually they'll bring the century over, and thats going to the pinnacle toyota model that will also be sold from lexus dealerships.

i dont know.... toyota is stupid nowadays.

Perhaps they will dissolve Lexus as a brand and focus only on Toyota.

I imagine Lexus is pretty profitable - seems like all the money is in luxury products - so killing off Lexus wouldn't be worth it.

Infiniti on the other hand....

I thought they learned from Scion that the average person is too stupid to realize who the parent company is, even when it's very obvious. That's why there's 4 different names for the first gen 86 twins and shopping for used ones is a mess.
