Anyone notice that in www.lexus.jp there is a "Version L" of the GS450h?

umm that's very interesting, a L version of the GS?! why? wouldn't it "collide" with the ls460?

 

The L version signifies a fully loaded version aka "Limited" edition, not a stretch version.

 

I think the GS460L is more sport oriented, whereas the LS460 is full-out luxury, although I don't really see a spot for it in the market either

 

Sorry couldn't read Japanese. Tried to do the Google Translate to English which was not very effective in describing what is Version L.

oh.... L means limited, man this is confusing @_@

anyway, you dont' see a L version of the 3 series or a L version of the 5 series (same thing for mb), coz' it will take away some sport aspect of the car, and make seriously collision between the car and its next level brother. so it kinda only make sense to have lwb version for the top of the line model

 

Toyota & Lexus Japan likes to signify their models with an "L" or "S" version of their cars. There are other designations they use as well.
