Short Description
The journey of a GS driver can follow multiple paths: the GS 350, GS 350 AWD and GS 460. While the paths vary slightly, the destination remains the same: pure, unbridled exhilaration. The GS 350 features dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i). By continually monitoring and adjusting the engine’s valves, the dual VVT-i system provides optimal power at all times to the driver. The GS 350 is propelled by a direct-injection, 303-horsepower,1 3.5-liter V6. The GS 460 features VVT-iE, with an additional intake function that responds more quickly and eliminates any effect cold weather may have upon starting the engine. And a 342-horsepower1 4.6-liter V8 gives the GS 460 its 0-to-60 time of 5.4 seconds.1, 2 With so much power, it’s all the more appropriate that a “Start” button is used to ignite the engine. Because the less time you have to spend turning a key, the more time you’ll have to spend as you please.

The GS 460 sports an eight-speed sequential-shift automatic transmission, while the GS 350 is equipped with a six-speed sequential-shift automatic transmission. The additional gears in each of these high-performance sedans provide greater acceleration on demand and virtually seamless shifting. Both feature an Electronically Controlled Transmission with intelligence (ECT-i) that can learn your acceleration habits and adjust the shift-timing accordingly. And for those who prefer to have more command over their vehicle, the sequential-shifting feature enables you to manually shift gears by simply nudging the gear shift forward and backward.

The journey of a GS driver seldom follows a straight line. Rather, in the mind of this driver—the more curves, the better. Which is precisely why the GS models include a multi-link rear suspension for responsive handling. And why the GS 460 sports a Variable Gear-Ratio Steering (VGRS) system that automatically varies the rack-and-pinion steering ratio for optimal maneuverability and control. And because every road—straight and curvy—must eventually end at some point, the GS comes equipped with an advanced braking system featuring front brake pads that yield a higher coefficient of friction.3 Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS), standard on the GS 460 and available on the GS 350, enables you to choose the Normal or Sport suspension setting to best fit your driving style. The all-wheel drive (AWD) GS 350 isn’t particular when it comes to devouring roads. AWD helps give added traction in many types of driving conditions. And, by allocating engine power to each individual wheel, it can help provide the GS greater grip in corners than two-wheel-drive performance sedans.
