The 2015 Lexus LS: before you buy
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2015 Lexus LS for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. This page helps you judge the 2015 Lexus LS before you buy one anywhere.
What to check on the LS
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 7 complaints with NHTSA, most often about service brakes, forward collision avoidance and fuel system; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the figures tell you
The 5.0L 8-cylinder hybrid does the work, through an automatic (CVT). It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 35 litres, from its 11.5 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $178.30. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,100 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
What the LS is like
As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. With 283 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Good uses for the LS
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Try before you buy
Try the LS on your commute, then decide. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the LS for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$4,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $17.83 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
Picking a year and a trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Within the 2015 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
