Lexus LS500 2026 Price in UAE

Twin-turbocharged, 416 BHP and ten speeds: the LS500 is the performance version of the Lexus flagship saloon, and the only one that makes a five-metre car feel genuinely quick. The fifth-generation body arrived in 2018 with a far lower roofline than any LS before it and was revised in 2021 with retuned suspension and a new touchscreen.

How much does the Lexus LS500 cost in the UAE?

The Platinum 3.5L is the whole range, at AED 457,000. Everything is standard because there is nothing above it in the petrol range — the twin-turbo V6, the full driver-assistance suite, the flagship cabin and the acoustic glazing all come as part of the car, and the only alternatives are the naturally aspirated model below and the hybrid alongside.

Lexus LS500 or Lexus LS500h?

The LS500 if you want the more straightforward car. Its twin-turbo V6 delivers a big, uncomplicated wave of torque and there is no hybrid system to consider over a long ownership. The LS500h is quieter in town and easier on fuel, at the cost of a more intricate drivetrain. The wider LS range also includes the naturally aspirated LS350.

What does a Lexus LS500 cost to run in the UAE?

Higher than the rest of the LS range, but not alarming. The twin-turbocharged V6 is the thirstiest engine in the line-up and the one that most rewards regular oil changes, though it takes standard fuel and has no exotic servicing requirements. Al-Futtaim Lexus runs sales and workshops in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Large tyres and brakes are the recurring costs worth budgeting for.

Does the Lexus LS500 hold its value, and what should you watch for as it ages?

Under par, and typical of flagship saloons. It holds about 61% after three years and about 44% after five, behind the roughly 66% and 51% that Japanese premium models in the UAE average — flagship saloons take the steepest depreciation of anything Lexus sells. The LS500s CarSwitch inspects run to a median of around 65,000 km, so these are lightly used cars; on an individual example, check the turbochargers' service history and the electronics rather than assuming wear.

That curve makes a carefully inspected used example a genuinely strong buy — read the report on the specific car before deciding. Work through the used Lexus cars listed now and judge them one at a time.
