Re-Examination And Current Updates Of Lexus IS 250c

By Danny Green

I have the honour to drive Lexus IS 250 Sedan model, though I am a big fan, and lover of its comfort features, and secure handling, which are present in all Lexus models, when I came across to a Lexus IS 250 Hard top convertible, I was breathless to see such a revelation in motor industry. This luxury car is engineered by Japanese automotive industry. The car was first brought in the auction in 2008 at Paris Mondial de l'Automobile. Lexus IS 250c is not an overnight development; it has taken four years of research on the previous body style to make over an elegant beauty.

To be scheduled to hit the streets by the year 2010, it is the first opening level convertible presented from Lexus. With retail tag of roughly 34,550 plus, it is claimed to have the greatest metal folding roof in the planet. Based on the IS Sedan, it is a renovation of a solid roof, four door sedan, into a retractable roof, two door coupe. Under its hood is a 204bhp (208 DIN hp) 2.5 litre V6 engine, and it will be obtainable in both six speed automatic, and manual transmissions.

The external design is based on the L-finesse design characteristics of the IS saloon. Stylish scope, comprehensive lines, and divergent convex and concave surfacing are all part of it. In spite of this, only a small number of body elements are familiar, which are the headlamps, bonnet, door handles, and door mirrors. All the rest have been redesigned to line up with the three-piece metal roof. All around the body, there are noticeable aerodynamic characteristics, which allow for enhanced driving with the roof down. The rear lights have new amalgamation light clusters with distinctive linear LED illumination, and a high-mounted LED stop light built into the higher lip of the boot lid.

The inner design is also based on the grand, splendid, and inventive internal designs of the Saloon. The car offers a good wide seating space for four persons including driver. Moreover, it has open-handed space for baggage. No other car in the market has enough space to place golf bag, even when the roof is down. The car contains 12 speaker, 365W Surround System with automated equaliser tuning that provides excellent sound quality in any condition; with roof up, or down. Another phenomenal feature is the built-in LCD touch screen audio player. This player is connected to various ports together with dedicated melody records of 10GB. It is a part of high-tech Navigation System, which has a devoted memory of 40GB, and holds back drawing for entire Europe with voice detection functionality.

The three-piece folding roof structure is made entirely of lightweight aluminium, and has the fastest opening and closing time of any three-part roof at 20 seconds. Its ultra quiet, and easily put in use by the press of a single button.

The traverse is very easy with the additional trait of standard 17-inch wheels. Moreover, multi link deferment, a robust framework, and Electronic Power Steering offer an improved handling, and controlling.

The Safety concerns have been well taken care of by a supreme five star rating in both Euro, and US NCAP crash testing. With all protection standards incorporated in the IS Sedan models, it also has the foremost of its kind twin-chamber passenger front airbag.

Overall, the 2010 Lexus IS 250C is found to be a refined touring convertible for a sensible price. Its interior improvement, relaxing ride, and good fuel economy are certainly bonuses. In addition, with UK being the biggest market for convertibles (despite the little sunshine we have), you are going to be seeing a lot of them around. - 21392
