Individualised climate control
Four zone automatic climate control, and two zone in the LS 460 Sport, ensures the driver, front passenger and outer rear seat passengers enjoy personalised climate comfort in all seasons. Fifteen air diffusers disperse warm or cool air as required, while air quality is maintained by air filters that help keep the cabin free of dust, pollen and odours. If the system detects excess smog levels outside the LS 460, it automatically switches to recirculation mode to stop smog entering the cabin.
Mark Levinson surround sound

The outstanding noise suppression and refined cabin dynamics of the LS 460 create the ideal acoustic environment for the 19 speaker, 450 watt surround sound system, which was designed specifically for the LS 460 cabin. The audio system comes as standard and includes a six disc DVD/CD changer, as well as AUX and USB ports for selected iPod® or MP3 players3.
