The Lexus IS is a compact executive car sold by Lexus, a luxury division of Toyota since 1999. The IS was originally sold under the Toyota Altezza nameplate in Japan since 1998. The IS was presented as an entry-level sports model located below. When it comes to luxury cars, there are many options available on the market. From the Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula One Ultra 1.4 football boot to the CUPRA Born, the brand's first 100% electric model, there is something for everyone. But which is the no.1 luxury car in the world? The answer is not so straightforward, as it depends on what you are looking for in a luxury car.
For some, it may be the precision feel and perfect weight of the car's large-rimmed steering wheel, while for others it may be the supreme refinement and flexibility of its V12 engine. At the top of the list is the Mercedes S650, which is part of Daimler's super-luxury brand Maybach. This ultra-rare car features a 621 bhp, 737 lb-ft twin-turbocharged petrol V12 engine and is barely audible when running. It is dedicated to comfort and good manners and its interior ambiance is more like that of an old gentlemen's club than a chandelier-lamp ballroom.
Next up is the Rolls-Royce Phantom, which is deliberately more modest and discreet in appearance than its British limousine rival. Its quality of material, luster and natural appeal of its wood veneers and tactile appeal of many of its accessories are second to none. The third option is the Ghost from Rolls-Royce, which made the property more accessible with its mechanical mounts adapted from those of the BMW 7 Series. It has a high-end interior with paneled smoking room ambiance and its all-aluminum platform only for Rolls-Royce used by the Phantom and Cullinan makes it even more desirable.
Finally, there is the Range Rover SVAutobiography, which has come a long way as a luxury car since its genesis days as an SUV. It measures 5.2 meters in length and 2.6 tons in weight at its heaviest point and was designed to take full advantage of the embryonic market for superexpensive SUVs and the high esteem that some hold for the Range Rover brand. So, if you are looking for a luxury car that offers onboard comfort unknown to anything else with the same level of performance, then look no further than these four options: The Mercedes S650, Rolls-Royce Phantom, Ghost from Rolls-Royce and Range Rover SVAutobiography.
