The $65,390 Lexus IS350 was updated in November 2016 with a mid-life facelift that added safety technology and a new front bumper bar, along with minor suspension changes.

It sits above the IS200t, which starts at $59,340, and the IS300h, which starts at $61,890.

The IS350 is available in $65,390 Luxury, $73,540 F Sport and $84,160 Sport Luxury trim levels. 

The rear-wheel-drive IS350 Luxury comes with leather trim, front performance damper, a new 10.3-inch multimedia screen and 17-inch alloys. It’s equipped with a rear view camera and automatic emergency braking 

The F Sport brings a sports body kit with different front bumper and variable gear steering rack.

The top Sports Luxury is the only trim level to come with rear-cross traffic alert, blind-spot monitor and adaptable suspension with emergency anti-dive control.

Built in Japan, the IS350 is powered by a 3.5-litre, naturally aspirated six cylinder petrol engine that makes 221kW and 370Nm. It’s backed by an eight-speed automatic gearbox as the only option.
