Radar-based adaptive cruise control. Advanced three-mode active suspension. State-of-the-art hybrid drive assist. These are just a few of the
Lexus LS600hL's technophilic charms, and already I'm giddy with the heady rush of silicon chips and gold-plated connectors.
OK, so that's a bit hyperbolic, but the LS600hL's spec sheet reads like a nerd's wet dream, and that's not a bad thing. Mercedes Benz has made it a point of pride to stage its S-Class as the most technologically advanced vehicle in its lineup, offering its wealthiest and most demanding customers the very latest in cutting edge automotive convenience and functionality. BMW has adopted a similar approach with its 7 Series and Audi's A8 has made a push to similar ground in recent years. Even
Jaguar's XJ features many of these goodies, despite the somewhat outmoded shell encasing them.
So if tech-heavy executive limos are the way to go, and
Lexus' LS600hL is the motherlode, it ought to be the very definition of motoring...
