The Lexus IS is a rear-wheel-drive vehicle. Below is an introduction to the Lexus IS: 1. The Lexus IS is a mid-size sedan under the Lexus brand. Its dimensions are 4,680 mm in length, 1,810 mm in width, and 1,430 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,800 mm. The Lexus IS is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, model code 8AR-FTS, which delivers a maximum power of 180 kW at 5,800 rpm and a peak torque of 350 Nm between 1,650 and 4,400 rpm. 2. The engine features VVT-i technology and a hybrid injection system, along with an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block to reduce weight, enhancing both handling and fuel efficiency. 3. This engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission (8AT), improving gearshift smoothness and fuel economy. 4. The Lexus IS uses a double-wishbone independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear. The double-wishbone setup helps reduce body roll and brake dive, consisting of upper and lower control arms connected by a linkage. The multi-link suspension replaces the control arms of the double-wishbone with individual links.
