What the specs mean
The 3.0L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 5-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The EPA rates it at 11.5 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 35 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $20.13 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,000 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Room inside
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. In plain terms, its 368 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Best uses
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
A longer test drive
Rent the LS first, and buy only if it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the LS answers more than any brochure.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $20.13 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$4,000 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
