Summary

Recommended. Lexuss antidote to the 3 Series has almost got us convinced.

Styling

Strong visuals give the Lexus far more road-presence than its slightly bland looking predecessor.

Handling

Keen reactions and plenty of grip, but the crashy ride tends to limit pace on bumpy backroads.

Comfort

On smooth roads nothing else in the segment comes close to the ISs almost uncanny level of refinement.

Quality

We dont like the 1980s-looking digital displays on the dashboard, but theres no arguing with the Lexuss impressively well-constructed feel. Its a real quality item.

Performance

The straight-six engine in the IS250 pulls strongly and works particularly well with the optional six-speed autobox. Diesel IS220d is powerful and economical.

Roominess

Reasonable driving position adjustment, although a cramped footwell can create discomfort in longer journeys. Rear seat space and boot accommodation is relatively tight.

Costs

Short 10,000 mile service intervals will make for plenty of trips to the dealer for average owners. Fuel economy is reasonable and insurance is competitive.

Value

Good standard equipment makes the IS look like conspicuously good value against stripped-out German rivals.

Stereo

The stereo gives a solid, crisp sound. Satnav works well, but very expensive as an option.
