Three ways the 2021 Lexus IS stands out from the competition

Completely redesigned this year, the 2021 Lexus IS returns with a host of enhancements that make the Lexus luxury sedan even more attractive and even more dynamic. Known for its sporty styling, luxurious interior and top-level performance paired with unparalleled reliability, the 2021 Lexus IS is perfect for those who want a refined sedan that doesn’t neglect any area of the complete driving experience.


To develop the new IS, Lexus had an all-new test track built in Japan, so that it had everything needed to fine-tune performance and overall dynamics.


Here's how the 2021 Lexus IS stands out from its competition.


Its choice of engines


The 2021 Lexus IS is offered with a variety of engines. You could say the IS comes in different flavors because the personality of the car changes from engine to engine, but not its DNA and comfort.


The first engine is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that develops 241 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. The second engine is a 3.5-liter V6 that develops 260 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque while this same V6 is offered in a more powerful version with 311 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque.


Unveiled earlier this year, the new Lexus IS 500 F Sport Performance offers a 5.0-liter V8 that develops 472 horsepower and 395 lb-ft of torque.


In short, there is an engine for every need in the IS range and above all, you can a very high level of performance at an equivalent or lower price than in the competition.


Its balance


Despite its exceptional performance, the new 2021 Lexus IS remains a benchmark in terms of comfort, driving comfort and quiet driving. The new IS has a new chassis and improvements to the suspension to make the ride even more luxurious in all situations.


Its reliability


Not all luxury cars come with reliability, but Lexus, a recurring winner of the J.D. Power Reliability and Initial Owner Satisfaction Survey, remains a benchmark at this level. No luxury car offers Lexus reliability, and no luxury sedan matches the IS when it comes to reliability in its segment.


The 2021 Lexus IS is a unique car in its segment. It gives you the performance you are looking for paired with stunning elegance and rock-solid reliability. Come learn more about the new 2021 Lexus IS today at Regency Lexus!
