2021 lexus is 500. The 2021 lexus ls500 is powered by a twin turbocharged v6 that puts out 416 horsepower and 442 lb ft of torque. The standard engine for the ls 500 is the 3 4 liter twin turbo v6 engine clubbed with a 10 speed automatic. This means a true ground up new is is still in the works possibly on a mazda rwd platform but the 2021 is will come with a new is 500 model and the glorious 5 0l v8.

That s the rumor anyway. The updated ls 500 starts at 77 025 which is just 550 more than the outgoing model our heavily loaded f sport tester hit. Paired with a 10 speed automatic transmission the engine is good enough for 416 hp and 442 lb fts of torque.

Power is delivered smooth and linear to the wheels and the ls feels very aptly powered to carry itself around town. The 2021 lexus ls 500 f sport is even more overwhelming with highly agile cornering performance. The engine also gets some enhancements to improve.
