Lexus offers a slip differential to the ultra-high performance IS F and a new F-Sport trim package for IS 250 and 220d models. Renewing the traditional differential has generated a notable increase in traction and stability in high-speed cornering, resulting in the greatly improved track times accomplished by Lexus's test team.
The Lexus IS F's powertrain: 5.0-litre V8 engine generates 417bhp at 6,600rpm and 505Nm of torque at 5,200rpm, running an eight-speed Sports Direct Shift automatic transmission with manual paddle shift.
0 to 62mph acceleration can be achieved in 4.8 seconds and maximum speed is 168mph.
A new Lexus Navigation System, three powerful audio systems, six-CD changer, steering-wheel-mounted controls, 19-inch alloy wheels and a 14-speaker Mark Levinson Premium Surround Sound System are available in the IS range.
