Category: Large Executive 
Price Range: £84,735 to £86,935
Comfortable, quick, relatively economical, well built.
Expensive, steering lacks feel.
A refreshingly forward-looking take on the classic executive saloon formula.
The LS600 won't be cheap to buy, and most big saloons lose a lot of their value very quickly. It's conceivable that the hybrid powertrain could help the LS to buck this trend, but it's too early to say.
The CO2 emissions of 219 g/km are much better than anything else in the class, and the fuel consumption figure of 30.4mpg is good too. However hard you push the petrol engine out on the open road, it will make up for it in town by switching itself off when it's not needed.
Insurance, servicing and tyres will all be costly.
