by: Jenny McLane, Tue Dec 6th
The LS430 is a large, rear-drive sedan, powered by a 4.3-litre,dual overhead cam V8 pumping out 207kW of power and 417Nm oftorque. Chief designer of the Lexus LS430, Makoto Ooshima, toldAmerican industry journal automotive News the car's design wasinspired by the Japanese bullet train as the car was tested inthe same wind tunnel. The maker claims the LS430 is the mostaerodynamic sedan in the world, with a drag coefficient of 0.25.(An average family sedan is 0.32.) The 2005 Toyota Lexus LS 430 has powered door-closing system,which pulls the doors tight against the seals. The headlightbeams swivel by 15 degrees left or right to follow the roadaccording to speed and steering input and there's a reversingcamera that transmits images to a 7in screen that also displayssat-nav information. Voice recognition technology responds toabout 300 commands for the navigation, audio andair-conditioning, while Bluetooth technology permits cable-freeuse of mobile phones and the like. A tyre pressure monitoringsystem is low-tech in comparison. The latest version of the 32-valve V8 engine uses less fuel andproduces less noxious emissions. The engine is mated to asix-speed automatic transmission with Shift Logic Control thatresponds to road grade and acceleration/deceleration activity. ASequential Shift feature also allows the driver to controlgearshifts manually, if desired.
