Trims, Powertrains, and Fuel Economy

The 2023 Lexus IS is a high-end sports sedan made in three powertrain variations: 300, 350, and 500. The 350s are available in F Sport Design and F Sport trims, while the 500s are offered with F Sport Performance and F Sport Performance Premium trims. The 300 comes with a standard turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that makes 241 hp and 258 lb.-ft. of torque, while the 350s get a 3.5-liter V6 making 311 hp and 280 lb.-ft. of torque (which is standard in the all-wheel drive version of the 300). The 500s have an ultra-potent 5.0-liter V8 that whisks out 472 hp and 395 lb.-ft. of torque. Rear-wheel drive is standard with most, but all-wheel drive is optional for the 300 and 350. With RWD, the IS will get an eight-speed automatic transmission, while those with AWD come with a six-speed automatic.

According to the EPA, the RWD IS 300 returns an estimated 21 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway. With AWD, it achieves 19 city/26 highway, as does the AWD 350. The RWD 350s fulfill 20 city/28 highway, and the IS 500s promise 17 city/25 highway.

300

This choice trim has a lot to offer since it’s chock full of refinements, including LED exterior lights, proximity keyless entry with push-button ignition, dual-zone automatic climate control, synthetic leather upholstery, 8-way power-adjustable front seats, selectable drive modes (Normal and Sport), and a 60/40-split folding rear seatback. Everyone can stay connected thanks to two USB ports and the Lexus Multimedia System, which consists of an 8-inch touchscreen, voice recognition, a Wi-Fi hotspot, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Amazon Alexa, Bluetooth hands-free, and SiriusXM satellite radio. The Lexus Safety System+ 2.5 suite is standard as well, providing a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane tracing assist, lane departure alert with steering assist, road sign assist, all-speed dynamic radar cruise control, and automatic high beams. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are also issued.

350 F Sport Design and 350 F Sport

In addition to a more powerful 3.5-liter V6, the 350 F Sport Design flaunts a sportier appearance with its unique front and rear bumpers, grille surround, rocker moldings, rear spoiler, and rear valence. Heated front seats come standard in conjunction with the available all-wheel drive.

The 350 F Sport’s differences include a trim-specific exhaust, rain-sensing windshield wipers, sport-bolstered ventilated front seats , a heated and leather-wrapped steering wheel, aluminum sport pedals, trim-specific interior trim, an auto-dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink, and a rear-seat center armrest with cupholders. It also gains a couple of noteworthy performance attributes: active sound control and a special gauge cluster with a sliding bezel and G-force display.

500 F Sport Performance and Performance Premium

The 500 F Sport Performance improves upon the 350 F Sport with a raised hood, an adaptive variable suspension, some additional drive modes (Eco, Sport S, Sport S+, and Custom), a Torsen limited-slip rear differential, a quad exhaust with stacked tips, upgraded brake rotors, Yamaha performance dampers, and special Enkei wheels. It also adds exterior mirrors with reverse gear tilt-down, intuitive parking assist with reverse automatic braking, position memory settings (for the side mirrors, driver’s seat, and steering wheel), a power tilt-and-telescopic steering wheel, and F Sport-embossed scuff plates for the front doorsills.

The 500 F Sport Performance Premium tops the range with premium triple-beam LED headlights, a surround-view camera, a power rear sunshade, and a 10.3-inch touchscreen with enhanced voice recognition, a 17-speaker Mark Levinson audio system, and integrated navigation.
