Lexus LS 460 Performance Overview
Lexus positioned the LS 460 as its full-size V8 flagship for the 2007 to 2015 production run covered here, with performance data drawn from 10 independently verified tests across those model years. All recorded examples fall within the XF40 generation, using naturally aspirated 1UR-FSE V8 power and gasoline drivetrains, with output ranging from 357 to 386 hp. Early results established the car’s baseline quickly: the 2007 Sedan reached 60 mph in 5.8 seconds, while the longer 2007 L Sedan posted 6.2 seconds, defining the slower end of the tested range.
Through the middle of the run, the LS 460 stayed narrowly grouped rather than moving through large performance swings. The 2010 Sedan recorded 5.8 seconds to 60 mph, and the 2013 F Sport did it in 5.7 seconds, showing the incremental gains achieved within the same basic V8 and rear-drive/luxury-sedan formula. Quarter-mile performance followed the same pattern, clustering around the mid-14-second range.
By the later XF40 years, the quickest verified result arrived with the 2014 Sedan at 5.6 seconds to 60 mph and a class-best 14.1 seconds at 101.5 mph in the quarter-mile. That leaves the LS 460 today as a tightly consistent V8 luxury sedan line, spanning a measured 5.6-to-6.2-second 0-60 window across the available tests.
