SynergyStar, thank you for transforming this "Lexus LS Hybrid" page into a general "Lexus LS (USF40)" page. I have been meaning to initiate a discussion to do this for a while now. I have been reluctant to do so because of the major arguments that have arisen whenever I have attempted to merge a hybrid variant of a petrol/diesel car back to its parent article (Talk:Toyota Camry Hybrid and Talk:Hyundai Elantra).

However, I think the page title should be "Lexus LS (XF40)" because "XF40" is the platform code; "UCF40" is the model code for the LS 460 only (the LS 600h has the "UVF45" code).

This naming convention has been applied at the various Toyota Camry sub articles: XV10, XV20, XV30, and XV40. OSX (talk • contributions) 07:50, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, article has been renamed to XF40. SynergyStar (talk) 22:27, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I broke up a few paragraphs, it's too difficult to read the information otherwise.Waterticktickticktick (talk) 15:39, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Timeline refs

[edit]

In reference to the recent date additions, which received citation needed tags due to a lack of sources:

  1. "The prototypical and production designs were completed in late 2003 and 2004 respectively."
  2. "Design patents were filed on October 3, 2005."
  3. "In 2007, development work begun on mid-cycle update. Design work was completed in 2008, with minor testing being conducted into the mid-2009."

In accordance with Wikipedia:Verifiability, I searched for references to support these statements. They appear to be plausible, however, searching through technical and review articles, as well as press information and the XF40's official developmental dossier, released at its European press preview, I could find no reference as of yet to the 2003/2004 design completion date. Searches used XF40 chief engineer "Moritaka Yoshida" and "LS 460" as keywords. Thus those dates have been excluded for now. Searching through the US patent office site, found here, uncovered the series of XF40 design patents, filed on October 3, 2005. The linked images also clearly show the LS 460, and this backs up the patent date statement as correct. The patents have been formatted and linked as a reference in the article. Finally, the mid-cycle date information could not be verified using extensive Google News searches. Therefore, the uncited information has been excluded from the article, for now. Should references be provided to back up this information, the dates can be added. Regards, SynergyStar (talk) 20:27, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
