Lexus gives the LS 460L a low liftover height into a trunk that seems small for the size of the car. Our test car lacked a thick Lexus embroidered cargo mat, resulting in a cheap trunk appearance. At this price, the trunk sill protector oughta be aluminum instead of plastic, and the ratcheting tie-down hooks shoulda been smooth and polished rather than a mottled chrome. Enclosed gooseneck hinges are used to support the LS 460’s trunk lid when gas struts are a more elegant solution, and the lid featured automatic opening and closing. A pass-through to the rear seat accommodates longer items such as skis.
