Overview
GSE30R Luxury Sedan 4dr Spts Auto 6sp 2.5i The rear-drive Lexus IS competes against BMW 3 Series, Audi A4 and Benz C-Class with sharp styling and a range of punchy engines starting with a 153kW/252 Nm 2.5-litre IS250 V6, progressing through the IS350 233kW/378Nm 3.5-litre V6 to the mighty 311kW/505Nm 5.0-litre V8 IS-F. Along the way, there's also a hybrid " the 133kW/212Nm (before electric power kicks in) 2.5-litre four-cylinder IS300h. There's a good dose of electronic trickery to keep owners occupied: SatNav, rear view camera, park assist and bi-Xenon headlights are standard from base level. It's accomplished on the road, giving nothing away to BMW, Mercedes or Audi.
