2015 Lexus GS 450h review: Our expert's take

The Lexus GS 350 is powered by a 3.5-liter V-6 engine, and the hybrid GS 450h gets a V-6 hybrid system. Rear-wheel drive is standard, with all-wheel drive available on the GS 350. Competitors include the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Cadillac CTS.

Eighteen-inch wheels are now standard. The available navigation system has 3D maps and additional voice commands. The Lexus Enform App Suite now uses iHeartRadio 4.0 and adds the Slacker app. Other available multimedia features include traffic and weather data and radio caching, which lets you pause live radio and includes a 15-minute buffer.

The GS 450h hybrid is now available in F Sport trim, which includes 19-inch staggered-width wheels, upgraded front brakes, a sport-tuned adaptive suspension, the Lexus Dynamic Handling System with variable-ratio steering, a 16-way power-adjustable sport driver seat and unique styling cues inside and out.

Building upon the F Sport version of the GS 350 is a Crafted Line special edition. Limited to 875 units, the car is finished in white with black exterior trim. Inside, the cabin gets two-tone upholstery. Lexus also includes a two-piece Tumi duffel bag set.

So Far, Very Good!

It's still under a month, but I'm blown away by the gas mileage I'm getting. Doubt I'll return to a gas-only engine. My trade-in was an '09, RX 350, so I knew I'd love the vehicle.
