Anticipation becomes expectation
The open cabin and interior spaces of the IS emphasise the dynamic relationship between luxury and performance, with room to breathe. The automatic climate control adjusts airflow to individual passengers to cater for a drop or rise in temperature. The variable compressor even eliminates pollen and unpleasant odours. The comfort of each passenger is individually catered for with heated and ventilated front seats* and an electronically controlled rear sunshade* for the backseats. The IS is comfortably Lexus.
The simplicity of the metallic finish interior accents, wood trim and semi-aniline leather* of the interior takes the beauty of L-Finesse indoors. Even the Optitron Meter Dial has received the L-Finesse finish to reduce eye-fatigue and improve clarity.
The Electro-Multi Vision display (EMV) allows the driver to conveniently operate the audio system, climate control, navigation system and Bluetooth™* with the tip of your finger via a touch sensitive liquid crystal display (LCD).
To match the screen on which it is displayed, the DVD navigation* system and Bluetooth™* technology are advanced and user-friendly. The DVD navigation system is displayed clearly on the 7-inch liquid crystal display. The Bluetooth allows the driver to make a call via voice activation which recognises up to 300 commands, a feature worth breaking the silence for, as is the Lexus Mark Levinson sound system*.
Designed by world renowned audiophile manufacturer Mark Levinson*, the 14-speaker in-dash 6-CD changer system is both WMA and MP3 compatible. The system also bears an AUX audio terminal for an external music player - premium digital surround sound is effortless in the IS.
