1995
- Introduction of the completely redesigned Second Generation LS400 Series III.
- Basically the second gen LS is bigger, slightly more powerful, and a new design all around. Since it was completely redesigned pretty much everything looks different on both the interior and exterior. Take a look at the pictures above to note these changes. I will list some less visible differences below....
- The 1UZ-FE engine was improved in several areas. Headers were changed from the single type to semi-dual type for better exhaust flow.
- Bigger and better brakes. The front brakes were changed from a single-sided 2-piston type to an opposed-cylinder 4-piston type.
- A few suspension improvements.
- LS400 emblem added to the trunk.
- Body is more rigid and made of anti-corrosion steel.
- More sound deadening to further reduce engine and road noise.
- The power tilt and power telescopic steering column became standard.
- 4-headlight system.
- Light auto turn-off system now standard.
- Automatic light control system became standard.
- Headlight cleaner became standard on Canadian models.
- Vehicle-speed sensing control was added to the intermittent wiper with an adjustable time function.
- 3-jet type windshield washer nozzles.
- A one-touch slide-open function was added to the moonroof (optional) and the tilt-up reminder function was discontinued.
- A windshield heater became standard for Canadian models.
- Dual airbags became standard.
- Space for a portable first-aid kit designed into the driver's side front seat.
- Rear armrest now equipped with a push-open type cup holder.
- A 3-point seat belt for the rear center seat was added for the first time on a Lexus.
- A front passenger side temperature control switch was added to offer dual front climate zones for better control.
- The electronic odometer was moved to the bottom center of the instrument cluster and the warning lights were lined up in a straight line on the bottom of the cluster. The temperature gauge is now separate and not in the instrument cluster.
- The optional CD changer was now mounted into the upper glove box.
- A trunk lid opener button and panic button were added to the wireless door lock system remote.
- And more...
- Top speed = 149 mph; 0-60 = 7.7 seconds; 0-400m = 15.2 seconds.
