The 2024 IS sports the Lexus Driving Signature that forges an even closer bond between driver and car. To build the purest expression of a sports sedan, Lexus had to build the ultimate track to sharpen it, the Shimoyama Test Track. The Shimoyama is modelled on the infamous Nurburgring, boasting a world-class 5.3 km test bed of curves, corners and multiple surfaces. This challenging track is where The IS was pushed to the limit to infuse an ever-higher dimension of performance.

Countless tests on the IS focused on enhancing rigidity to create a vehicle that provides immediate steering feedback, while simultaneously reduce unwanted noise and vibration too, and elevate ride comfort. Multiple refinements were made to the suspension setup, including innovative parts and materials, and reductions in unsprung weight. From the racetrack to the roads you drive, The 2024 Lexus IS is a proven performer, ready to make the most challenging conditions into its winter and summer playground.
