ALL STYLE.
ALL SUBSTANCE
With an array of performance options, the IS line not only turns
heads on the road, it even refuses to go unnoticed while parked.
Punctuating its aggressive stance, you’ll find arresting details like
inset LED daytime running lights and a sculpted line that moves
from the rocker panel through the rear wheel arch and culminates
in the dramatic sweeping taillamp.

THREE MODELS.
IT’S ALL IN
ONE QUANTIFIABLE DIFFERENCE.
While the engines of the most powerful IS line ever
may differ, the result is the same: full-throttle
exhilaration. Need proof? The numbers speak
for themselves.

responsive 241-horsepower
engine. Featuring standard all-wheel drive, the
IS 300 offers heart-racing power courtesy of
an impressive 255-hp

IS 200t AND IS 300
When developing the first-ever IS200t, we
didn’t outsource our turbocharger design like
some automakers. It was engineered with
our own highly evolved twin-scroll turbocharger
technology. The result? An impressive 241
horsepower
1
and 258 lb-ft of low-end torque,1
for responsive performance that you can
feel the moment you accelerate.
And, when pushing the IS 30 0’s
255-horsepower
1
V6 above 4,500 RPM, the
cabin is filled with a throaty engine note that
complements the invigorating all-wheel drive
performance of the vehicle itself.

IS 350
Boasting an impressive 306 -horsepower,1 3.5 -liter V6
engine, the IS 350 demands its share of attention. But
the technology inside is also noteworthy. The IS 350
offers the advantage of ingenious dual Variable Valve
Timing with intelligence (VV T-i), which helps provide
enhanced fuel efficiency, added torque at lower speeds
and greater acceleration at higher speeds.

TRACKS.
ONE
PURPOSE
Connecting the driver and the road in a visceral
way should never be left to chance. Which is why
the IS was tested and tuned on the world’s most
iconic tracks, including Fuji Speedway.
Each test refined the IS to the point of precision.
The highly rigid body is courtesy of laser screw
welding techniques, varied panel thicknesses and
an innovative adhesive bonding process. While
the steering system is optimized to offer greater
feedback and responsiveness. In addition, a wide
track offers greater control and agility, helping the
IS to master ever y curve and stretch.
