Lexus IS: Inside a Luxury Sports Sedan

While the sporty design and performance may have brought you to the Lexus IS, inside is where it really separates itself. It should be no surprise that the interior of the IS is designed for the most important person in the car, the driver. A 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat along with an available heating and ventilation function provides plenty of comfort, which isn't always available in comparable sports sedans. The 7-inch digital gauge cluster is nearly identical to the gauges in the world-renowned LFA supercar, and the 8-inch or available 10.3-inch smart screen display offers all the modern connectivity you would expect. Optional upgrades include a panoramic view monitor that uses 4 cameras to piece together a bird's-eye view of your surroundings. And for those audiophiles out there, the IS offers an available Mark Levinson Premium Surround Sound system. In our opinion, if you're looking for a luxury sports sedan as a daily driver, you won't find many better options on the market today.

Lexus IS: Comfort in a Sports Car

How comfortable is the Lexus IS? This is one of the first things to consider when evaluating any vehicle, and our answer is straightforward: it's a Lexus, so comfort is a given. But what specifically contributes to this comfort? We believe it stems from a combination of well-designed adjustable seating, numerous tech amenities, and quality materials. Additionally, Lexus puts a lot of effort into the overall driving experience with features like Active Sound Control, which works to cancel out the sounds you don't like and enhance the ones you want. Below, we outline some key features that contribute to the IS' comfort and which trim levels they come in:

Please note that some features that come standard on higher trims are available as optional upgrades for lower trims

Lexus IS: Engine Specs & Performance

Lexus made sure that the IS is a blast to drive. With paddle shifting and select drive modes, you're in complete control of your experience. The available performance-inspired instrumentation and G-force display make the IS feel like it's ready for the track. It comes in both rear-wheel and all-wheel drive options, with four different powertrain choices based on the model, so if you find yourself in a cold winter climate like Brookfield, the IS is still a great option for you. All rear-wheel drive options offer an eight-speed Sport Direct Shift automatic transmission, which includes a G-force Artificial Intelligence system to optimize gear selection based on performance data. AWD models utilize an electronically controlled all-wheel drive system that enhances traction by adjusting the torque distribution between the front and rear wheels. Upgrade to either Performance trim, and you can look forward to:

• F SPORT-tuned Adaptive Variable Suspension
• Sport S+ drive mode
• Torsen limited-slip rear differential
• Stacked quad exhaust tips
• Two-piece aluminum 14.0 in front and 12.7 in rear brake rotors
• Yamaha rear performance dampers

Lexus IS: Body Styles

While the IS is sporty throughout the model lineup, higher trims of the IS have different body style elements. Base models of the IS have 18-inch rims but immediately upgrade to 19 for higher trims. The base trim has chrome throughout the exterior, but higher trims get darker accents for a more dramatic look. F Sport Design and higher trims include black front and rear bumpers, a grille surround, rocker moldings, a rear spoiler, and a rear valance. If you upgrade to the F Sport or higher trims, you will add Dark Chrome-finish window trim and mirrors as well. Finally, performance trims require a raised hood, which adds about 2 inches to the length of the IS and finishes things off with dark metallic 10-spoke Enkei alloy wheels. While not all of these changes are dramatic. It can add up to a fairly different style at the highest trims.
