2018 LS500h
Nearby dealer has an LS hybrid. Nice car, but I’m a little concerned about maintenance vs a regular LS500, especially the unusual transmission arrangement and the adj. suspension. Is there someone who has put high mileage on one of these beasts who can ease any doubts I might have about buying this one.

My 2018 LS 500h has 85000 km's on it and runs as new, i don't like the 10 speed gearbox, it sometimes shifts a bit too fast/hard, dealer says it's normal. The suspension is a bit hard compared to my previous LS 600h (both air).

Speaking recently with a long term Lexus tech and he has not heard/seen any issues with LS500h yet since its release. I figured going with the hybrid would be more reliable than twin-turbo along with slight increase in MPG when making my initial decision to buy. Praying that there a no issues longterm.
