More Used Lexus Sedan Reviews /All Lexus Cars

Lexus has long been known to make some of the most stylish cars in the world. It is a sub division of the Japanese heavy weight Toyota and is primarily focused on building luxury vehicles. One of the models that Lexus is famous for is the Lexus IS Sedan. For people who are looking for a stylish, yet sporty vehicle that comes at a not so hefty price, the Lexus IS Sedan is the perfect car to buy. It includes all of the options that you would expect from a Lexus, but adds some neat touches in order to make it even more viable than its predecessors. Let us discuss the base model of the IS Sedan and see how it fares.

The Lexus IS Sedan is available in four different base models. One of them is the IS 350 RWD, which has a 3.5 L VVT I V6 engine, a compression ratio of 11: 8: 1. The engine is capable of producing 306 HP at 6400 RPM and a torque of 277 pound feet at 4,800 RPM. The other model that is available is the IS 350 AWD. This one also includes the exact same specifications as compared to the IS 350 RWD. However, as it is an all-wheel drive vehicle, the driving ratio is much higher as compared to the rear wheel drive model and the price of this model is also slightly higher. The third variant that you can purchase is the IS 250 RWD with Manual Transmission, and this one comes with a 2.5 L V6 VVT I engine. The compression ratio of this model is 12: 0: 1 and it has a capability of producing 204 HP at 6,400 RPM and a torque of 185 pound feet.

The fourth variant is the IS 250 RWD, which is same as the IS 250 AWD with the only exception being that this one is exclusively rear wheel drive. All of the models have a certified ultra-low emission vehicle rating of ULEV II. The IS 350 RWD has the fastest acceleration, being able to go from zero to sixty in 5.6 seconds. People who are looking for a stylish vehicle that can easily cater to their everyday driving needs will be certainly pleased with the Lexus IS Sedan, as it packs all of the luxury features and performance to provide the ultimate driving experience in a Lexus.
