The Lexus LS460 is the fourth-generation LS flagship, powered by Lexus's 4.6-litre V8 and built to go up against the long-wheelbase 7 Series and S-Class on cabin isolation rather than outright performance. In the Kingdom it is a common choice for buyers who want a large, quiet, dealer-serviced saloon rather than a German flagship.
How much does a used Lexus LS460 cost in Saudi Arabia?
Live listings currently run from SAR 65187 to SAR 122500, out of 7 cars on our lot right now, spanning a range of ages and specs.
Which used Lexus LS460 year should you buy?
2013 to 2017, after Lexus's mid-cycle facelift reworked the front end and added the eight-speed transmission across the range, and before production ended ahead of the current LS500 generation.
Is a used Lexus LS460 reliable?
Very, by the standards of the class. Our inspections find a mechanical fault — engine, gearbox, suspension or steering — on only around 6% of the LS460s we check, well below the 29% we'd expect for full-size luxury saloons of similar age and mileage in the Kingdom. That gap is the strongest argument for this car over most rivals its size.
What else should you know about the Lexus LS460?
The BMW 740 costs a little more and our checks find a higher rate of engine or gearbox faults on it than on the LS460. The Mercedes E300 is a smaller, cheaper saloon if flagship space isn't the priority. Inside the Lexus range, the IS350 is a smaller, sportier saloon for less money.
What to check on a used Lexus LS460
- Full Lexus dealer service history, still worth confirming even on a reliable car.
- Air suspension at all four corners if fitted.
- Cabin electronics and screens, since a fault here is more likely than an engine fault.
- Tyre wear and alignment on this large, heavy saloon.
Read the CarSwitch inspection report before you buy — on this car it will most likely confirm what the fault rate already tells you.
