The introduction of the 2026 IS model puts to rest most speculation that Lexus would launch a new generation of the IS.
This is because the 2026 IS is essentially the third facelift version, following two previous iterations introduced in 2017 and 2020.
The most noticeable change is at the front, where the spindle grille structure has been redesigned, and the Lexus logo has been repositioned to the top.
This redesign gives the front bumper a more aggressive appearance.
Additionally, the IS comes with new 19-inch alloy wheels, a large rear spoiler, and the word “LEXUS” is prominently displayed on the rear.
Inside the cabin, there is a 12.3-inch digital cluster screen, a central 12.3-inch infotainment screen, a more streamlined climate control panel, and bamboo fiber trim on the center console.
Lexus has also eliminated long-standing brand staples like the trackpad and the analog clock.
The Lexus Safety System+ has been improved with ADAS functionalities that allow for hands-free driving on the highway.
Other subtle changes include a more responsive Electric Power Steering (EPS) system and solenoid-type adaptive suspension for a more comfortable ride.
The 2026 Lexus IS is offered only in the IS 300h variant (2.5L hybrid engine with 217 hp) and IS 350 (3.5L V6 engine with 314 hp), while the IS 500 with its V8 engine is unlikely to remain in the lineup following the launch of the Climax Edition model recently.
