CAR CARRIER LOADING AND TRANSPORTING:
The use of car carrier equipment is the preferred method of transporting the 2013 Lexus
GS Series vehicles.
NOTE: The curb weights for the 2013 Lexus GS SERIES vehicle are:
GS 350 – RWD: 3,795lbs.; AWD: 3,970 lbs.
GS 350 F Sport – RWD: 3,795 lbs.; AWD 3,970 lbs.
GS 450h Hybrid – RWD: 4,190 lbs.
The 2013 Lexus GS Series has a standard ground clearance of 5.7 inches. Loading this
vehicle onto a conventional car carrier may require additional ramping in some
circumstances. However, clearance at the trailing end of the vehicle should always be
checked as it is loaded.
The towing eyelet should be used for front loading of these vehicles. The eyelet is
located in the tool kit in the center of the rear cargo area under the floor.
If the towing eyelet is missing or otherwise inaccessible, the tie-down slots on the
undercarriage can be used to load the vehicle. Eyelets are available for purchase through
any Lexus dealership parts department. Other towing and tie-down equipment shown in
this guide is available through AW Direct, a AAA preferred supplier.
