2025 Lexus IS
What Is It?
The 2025 Lexus IS is a compact premium sedan aimed at buyers who want a refined four-door with sporty character and everyday practicality. It seats five, is powered by a petrol engine delivering 241 horsepower, and drives the front wheels through an automatic transmission. With a factory-quoted 0–100 km/h time of 7.0 seconds, the IS balances responsive performance with the comfort expected from the Lexus name.
Design & Exterior
On the outside the IS carries Lexus’s contemporary design language scaled to a compact footprint, combining a low, planted stance with crisp surface treatments that suit both city streets and open highways. The sedan proportions make it easy to park in tight Dubai and Abu Dhabi garages while presenting a presence on the Sheikh Zayed Road or Jebel Hafeet. Details such as aerodynamic shaping and wheel designs are intended to give the car a sporty look without compromising daily usability in the UAE’s varied driving environments.
Interior & Comfort
Inside, the 5-seat cabin is tailored for comfort during both short urban trips and longer highway drives typical of UAE commutes and inter-emirate travel. The layout focuses on driver ergonomics and premium materials, with supportive seating for hot-weather use and space for four adults to travel comfortably. Strong air-conditioning performance and sun protection for occupants are important in the UAE climate, and the IS’s interior packaging aims to keep occupants cool and insulated from outside heat and dust.
Performance & Engine
The petrol powertrain produces 241 hp and channels that power to the front wheels through an automatic gearbox. Acceleration to 100 km/h is rated at 7.0 seconds, giving the IS brisk on-ramps and confident overtaking on highways. Front-wheel drive helps with traction in everyday conditions and keeps mechanical simplicity for lower maintenance. Real-world fuel consumption will vary with driving style, heavy use of air conditioning in summer and stop-start city traffic, but petrol availability across the UAE makes refuelling convenient.
Safety & Tech Features
Lexus has a reputation for equipping its models with comprehensive safety engineering and modern connectivity, and the IS benefits from a chassis tuned for predictable handling and crash protection. For specifics on active driver-assistance systems, airbags, parking aids and infotainment options tailored to UAE models, prospective buyers should consult local Lexus dealers who can confirm the exact specification, packages and optional equipment available in the Emirates.

Widespread petrol availability and Lexus service networks across the Emirates support ownership and maintenance.
