2016 Lexus IS Photo Gallery

Best execution of the Lexus spindle grille. The front end styling will be revised for 2017.

Trim yet muscular lines.

Longer than previous generations, but still clearly a compact.

I especially like how the rocker panel twists up into the tail light. Point echoed in side window.

Not as upscale as some others, but refreshingly different. I like the 1980s retro vibe.

A much less imposing instrument panel than you'll find in most competitors.

Everything is close at hand. Note LFA-inspired instruments.

Comfortable yet supportive. You can't get leather with the F Sport, but this is a good synthetic.

Decent room, but the size and low position of the cushion remain those of a compact sedan.

Small trunk. At least the rear seat folds.

The new turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Better than the small V6 it replaces.

Turbo to the left of the engine.
