Entering the compact executive car market in 1998 with the Lexus IS, the luxury car brand saw quick success with this model.

It was originally sold under the parent Toyota brand as the Altezza for a year before the company realized it would sell better as a luxury offering.

Most examples of the IS on the road are rear-wheel-drive but a small portion of them are four-wheel-drive, driven by electric motors that also capture lost energy during braking.

For each of the three generations so far a range of engines have been on offer including modest 2 litre gasoline/2.2 litre turbo-diesels through to the extravagant F-Sport trim with a 5 litre V8.

The current IS model now in its third-generation features a range of hybrid drivetrains for economical and comfortable driving.
