BEIJING: Lexus has taken the covers off the new IS, armed with a fresh new look and a few changes at the Beijing Auto Show 2016.

The entire front fascia of the new model has undergone a transformation, highlighted by new headlamps, large air intakes in the front bumper and an evolution of Lexus’ spindle grille.

The new grille folds back at a higher point, changing its top and bottom proportions that enhance its sporty feel.

The F SPORT’s grille features an exclusive 3-dimentional F-mesh pattern, with jet-black metallic coating that incorporates functional brake ducts.

Adding to the IS’s dynamic flair are standard 10-spoke 17-inch wheels.

Into the new IS’s cabin, the multimedia display screen has grown from 7 inches to 10.3 inches.

Also, “Enter” buttons have been added to the sides of the Remote Touch Interface (RTI) on the center console, making the system easier to use.

The rear-wheel-drive IS 200t will be powered by the recently-added 2.0-liter twin-scroll turbocharged inline-4 with intercooler, which comes mated to a 8-speed automatic transmission.

This engine, first introduced on the NX crossover vehicle, features Variable Valve Timing-intelligent Wide (VVT-iW) that allows the engine to switch between Otto and Atkinson cycles by varying the intake-valve opening angles, and the D-4ST direct injection system.

Power is rated at 241hp at 5,800rpm or torque of 350Nm at 1,650 to 4,400rpm.

It combines Pre-Collision System, Lane Departure Alert (LDA) with Steering Assist, Automatic High Beam (AHB) and Radar Cruise Control.
