Inside Sport Special F heated front seats are equipped with a microfiber insert special forces side leather to provide more grip for the driver and passenger when cornering. The package also adds R Sport badging at the wheel, gear knob and door sills scuff plates.
Engine / gearbox / transmission / performance.
The 350 has 3.5-liter V6 offers a more powerful 306 horsepower at 6400 rpm and 277 lb-ft of torque at 4800 rpm. It is 350 RWD model can accelerate from zero to 60 km / h in just 5.3 seconds. The engine employs Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i), which controls the timing on both camshafts intake and exhaust.
Aside from its larger displacement, 3.5-liter V6 is also distinguished as it increases the direct injection injector port. Light and medium load conditions, these additional injectors help produce accurate burn to optimize power and efficiency. Exhaust system reduces backpressure at higher engine speeds double.
An advanced six-speed automatic with steering levers mounted behind the wheel are standard on the IS-350 models (and IS 250 AWD).
Chassis / Body / Suspension / Wheels / Brakes.
Lexus IS models bring a sportier driving experience while offering a smooth and quiet.

A planetary center differential and a wet-type multi-disc clutch front-rear power distribution. The system normally sends 70 percent of the available power to the rear wheels to provide the performance benefits of a RWD car and varying the ratio of torque split from 30:70 to 50:50 in response to driving conditions and decisions of the driver. The strategy of the electronic control system of all-wheel drive takes inputs such as steering angle and gas from the pilot activity combined with vehicle signals from wheel speed and yaw sensors.
Helping IS models, traction and stability is the Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM). More advanced than any other traction and stability systems, VDIM is designed to predict the onset of a vehicle skid or slide and help correct the situation of a combination of braking and throttle control. VDIM integration provides precise control of electric power steering (EPS), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), anti-lock brakes (ABS), Brake Assist (BA), electronic brake force distribution (EBD) and engine torque (via the throttle electronically controlled). The driver can be released through the VSC, "TRAC Off" switch, which can be useful in certain situations.
The IS 350 The braking system features large, ventilated discs front and rear four-piston front calipers and aluminum. Performance standards for all 225/45R17 tires in front and the year in the rear 245/45R17 (225/45R17 IS 250 AWD and 350). Eighteen-inch wheels are available.

The rearview camera that comes with the optional navigation system, automatically projects an image of what its lens can detect behind the vehicle on the navigation screen when the transmission is in reverse. Exterior mirrors with integrated turn signals.
The optional Intuitive Park Assist (IPA) system uses ultrasonic sensors to detect objects close to the front and rear bumpers to help warn the driver and shows the distance of objects in multi-information display within the speedometer. When all IS models are also equipped with the optional navigation system for data objects detected is shown in more detail, the system is seven-inch touch screen.
