2025
LEXUS IS 500 F SPORT PERFORMANCE +

The 2025 IS 500 is a "muscular" evolution of the standard IS sedan. To accommodate the massive V8 engine, the exterior features a hood that has been raised by nearly 50mm, along with lengthened front fenders and a unique front bumper. The rear is defined by a stacked quad exhaust system and a unique lower rear diffuser. Inside, the cabin is a driver-centric cockpit featuring bolstered sport seats, F Sport-specific digital instrumentation inspired by the LFA supercar, and premium materials like NuLuxe and aluminum.
