Pretty much a clone of the 460L except of course for the hybrid engine and AWD. Also some of what are options in the 460L will be standard. No **** it looks like. Still looking for some trunk measurements, both with and without the rear seat upgrade option.

At last the card key is coming to the U.S., nice! I was wondering about the safety systems---still no LKA or DMS?

I'd like to see that leather interior, et al...maybe more color combinations...

I, too, want this feature. Perhaps we can fit our current key hardware into the card -- sort'a like a retrofit for our key fobs...

"No **** it looks like."


Well, maybe it does have it after all. Just received the magazine today and read the whole article. Its also reprinted here at CL in Car Chat. While **** is not listed in the standard or optional equipment/features, the article says that the "vehicle also comes with active stabilizers that help reduce body roll and pitch". I didn't see any more detail than that but this sounds good and will help further distance the 600hL from the 460L. The appearances are nearly identical though except for the LED headlights, wheels and hybrid badging.

I certainly hope they are referring to the ****, & I think they should eventually make it an option available for all LS's . . .

i am hoping for the best on the **** as well. the active stablizer does give a lot of hint

and i guess this is the only way to get some sort of touring package with rear seat upgrade. it doesn't say anything about the sways (maybe ****?), but it does mention about the VGRS, which is only available on touring package right now. and it's standard on the 600hl, with the rear seat upgrade being an option
