Newbie Question Difference of LT and LS?
 

OK guys, school me,

What's the difference in the LS and the LT?

Suspension?
Motor?
Interior?

Thanks!

Not to confuse the issue there are 2 different LT's as well..... 1LT and 2LT. Fun huh?

It's basically availability of some options that separates the three different versions. The 2LT is the only one that can have the FE3 "Sport Suspension" and always comes with the 2.4L motor. The other two differ mostly by what comes with the base model but many of the "upgrades" can be ordered (except for that FE3 suspension)

I think they may have changed things around for the 2011 model year, it being the last.

are the heated seats 2lt only? how about f5 suspension?

FE5 is SS only...... Heated seats is anything you can order leather in......

LS only comes with a 2.2, it is an option on 1LT and standard on 2LT.

Couldn't you order a 2.4 in an LS on a special order?

Nope, as far as I know 2.4 is only an order option on 1LT, standard on 2LT.
The 1LT comes with power driver seat and MP3 stereo. Different 5 spoke steel wheels on 2008+.

LS is the Base model, 1LT is mid trim level, with most sought-after amenities, 2LT is top trim level with larger 2.4 litre engine, 17" wheels and all the goodies you could wish for ! SS is a slightly differant animal altogether, with Differant interior look, differant grille, 18" wheels and turbo-charged 2.0 litre, among other things.

LS = Base model limmited options. LT1 = More options. LT2 = lots of options come standard plus more options available. The badge on the car only will say LS or LT. If it is and LT your need to do some looking to findout if its a 1LT or a 2LT.:twothumbs:

2LT will also have the chrome door handles and mirrors, plus the Pioneer 'subwoofer'

My 1LT has the chrome mirrors and door handles.
Most 1LT comes with 16" wheels, the 2LT comes with 17" wheels. "Factory"

The 17" wheels are part of the FE3 Sport suspension on the 2LT

LS...LT1..LT2....add em up and go get a SS....nuff said
