Lexus LS 460 to make bow in Moscow

Lexus will be officially unveiling the LS 460 for the first time at the 2008 Moscow International Motor Show next week.

The LS 460 has been strengthened by the addition of permanent all-wheel drive, says Lexus.

This system has three differential configurations, featuring a compact Torsen Limited Slip Differential (LDS), technology that is shared with the LS 600h.

This means that drive torque is distributed between the front and rear axles with a 40:60 rear axle bias.

The LS 460 AWD will be on sale in the UK early next year.
