Driving Impression

 

 

The IS 250 AWD sedan with F Sport appearance package was fun to drive and was great for maneuvering on the highway and in the city.

 

 

The IS sedan is larger than its predecessor. Its wheelbase grew 2.7 inches and length ¾”.

 

 

The IS 250’s handling is very responsive and easy to maneuver. When going into curves the brakes were adaptive to any situation. The steering is responsive and gives you immediate feedback to the road.

 

 

 

Under the Hood

 

 

 

 I thought the base 2.5L 204 hp drive train was a little underpowered for the vehicle.  When you think you are sitting in a sports car you are deserving of a motor that performs the way the car looks! EPA fuel economy rating is 20 m.p.g. in the city, 27 highway and 23 m.p.g combined.

The interior of the GS exurbs luxury and is very attractive with every creature feature imaginable. The GS has a steering wheel, which automatically lifts and retracts when you turn off the car.

 

One of the highlights of the GS is the beautiful bamboo trim, which highlights the interior.

 

The 12.3-inch screen highlights the center stack, which is easy to read.

 

The GS 450h had a Mark Levinson audio system, which delivers superb sound with 835- watt amp.

Outside

 

 

 

The exterior design is not as unique as I found as the interior, which is pleasant but not ground breaking. The spindle grille highlights the front end, but I found the rear end design lackluster. The shape of the GS 450h has large greenhouse, and rounded roofline and gives the car a sedate look.

 

Summary

 

Buyers looking for a high end highbred should definitely visit their local Lexus dealer for a test drive.

Driving Impression

 

The 2014 V6 has more power, but it’s still not as much fun to drive as the other competitor’s with V6s and turbocharged four-cylinder engines found in rival models.

 

The 2014 Outlander has a comfortable ride and handling is OK.  The Outlander is lacking a sporty feel and handling. My biggest single complaint is the sound of the doors when you slam them , which is a very tinny noise.

 

 

 

Under the Hood

 

Under the GT’s hood is a 3.0-liter V6 that produces 224 hp and 215 lb-ft of torque, which is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.
