Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2025 LS500.
The 2025 Lexus LS500 carries an Automatic (S10) transmission and EPA fuel-economy ratings of 18/29/22 mpg. Reliability data for this model year is notably sparse, consisting of just 1 total owner complaint—concentrated in Air Bags, Seat Belts, and Seats—and 2 recalls. That minimal reported-issue count places the 2025 variant at the low-defect end of the LS500’s reliability history, meaning researchers are examining a launch-year profile with comparatively little documented owner-reported defect activity.
