Why Choose the Lexus IS?

The Lexus IS is a rear-wheel-drive compact luxury sport sedan with double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension tuned at the Shimoyama Technical Center in Japan. Northern Kentucky drivers across Fort Wright, Covington, Erlanger, Florence, and Crescent Springs are drawn to the IS 300 2.0-liter turbo for efficient daily luxury, the IS 350 F SPORT with its naturally aspirated V6, and the IS 500 F SPORT Performance – the only compact luxury sedan still offered with a 472-horsepower naturally aspirated 5.0L V8.

Lexus Interface multimedia with a standard 8-inch or available 10.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, and standard Lexus Safety System+ 2.5 deliver modern luxury in a traditional driver-focused sport sedan package.
