Owing to the new-found popularity of hybrid vehicles and the esteemed reputation of Lexus’ flagship LS series itself, the Lexus Hybrid Drive powered LS 600h L has received an expectedly frenzied reception since its unveiling in 2006.

The Pebble Beach edition, launched in honor of Lexus’ new partnership with the venue for one of the world’s most prominent Concours d’Elegances, features notable safety and security upgrades.

This includes the Advanced Pre-Collision System (APCS), which detects pedestrians obstructing the vehicle’s path, and a driver Monitor System that warns drivers of impending obstacles when their heads are not facing forward.

Aesthetics have also been given a boost in the form of a customized paint job, and an interior with alabaster and black leather trim, and Dark Grey Bird’s-eye maple wood trim. 50 units will be on sale in October, along with a Pebble Beach edition of the 300 SC 430 hardtop convertibles.
