2014 Lexus IS priced at $35,950* |
|

Filed under: Car Buying, Sedan, Lexus, Luxury
Lexus has announced pricing for its 2014 IS Sedan. Buyers will be able to take home the reworked luxury four door beginning at $35,950, the MSRP for the IS250 in rear-wheel drive configuration (excluding $895 destination fee). Stepping up to all-wheel drive will see that number jump to $38,485, and both variants get their grunt from a 204-horsepower, 2.5-liter V6. Going for the IS350 with its 306-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 will cost your $39,465, and adding all-wheel drive to that equation will see the bottom line jump to $41,700. As Lexus points out, the 2014 IS350 is 2.1 percent cheaper than the 2013 model.
Each model comes standard with HID headlamps, LED daytime running lamps, dual zone climate control and other goodies, and buyers can option up their sleds with Premium, Luxury and F Sport trim packages (above). The latter F-Sport guise adds a new mesh grille, revised front fascia, unique seats and sport suspension. Check out the full press release below for more information.Continue reading 2014 Lexus IS priced at $35,950*

New Lexus small CUV may have been behind moving ES production to Kentucky |
|
Apr 22, 2013 - 5:17 PM - by Lexus News

Filed under: Hybrid, Sedan, Japan, Plants/Manufacturing, Crossover, Lexus, Luxury
Lexus may have had another big reason - in addition to the financial incentives potentially worth up to $146.5 million that Kentucky offered - to move ES production to its Georgetown, KY plant. The ES has always been built in Japan, and a report at TheDetroitBureau.com claims that the Kyushu facility will be tooling up to build a new model thought to be a compact hybrid crossover expected to go on sale next year. While ES300h production would remain in Japan, shedding 50,000 units of traditional ES production would free capacity for what many think will be an important model in the Lexus lineup.
The new CUV will come in below the ... [Read More]

2013 Lexus LS460 F-Sport AWD |

Gary Approved
There's a guy that goes to my gym who can't get enough of the Lexus LS - let's call him Gary. Gary's the guy - you've probably got one at your gym, or coffee shop, or some other public but quasi-social location - who talks to everyone he meets. Sit next to him on the rowing machine or run by him on the track, and he's almost certainly going to bend your ear for a minute or 20. Gary is in his mid-60s, a business owner, and the super-proud owner of a 2013 Lexus LS.
Not being a shy man, Gary will be the first one to tell you that he didn't do much comparative shopping (he "drove by" the BMW dealership, and looked at a 7 Series "on the computer"). Being a satisfied former owner of multiple Lexus RXs, there was probably only a tiny statistical chance that Gary wouldn't end up in an LS when it came time for him to treat himself to the tricked out luxury car that he'd wanted for a long time. Still, when I found myself chatting with Gary about his new LS, right after I had spent a wintry week in the 2013 LS460 F-Sport AWD, I figured that he'd have some light to shed on the car.

Lexus ES350 confirmed for Kentucky production starting in 2015 |
|
Apr 19, 2013 - 12:19 PM - by Lexus News

Filed under: Sedan, Hirings/Firings/Layoffs, Plants/Manufacturing, Lexus, Luxury
Following Thursday's report, Toyota has confirmed that production of the Lexus ES will move to its Georgetown, KY assembly plant starting in 2015. To accommodate the extra 50,000 units of capacity that the ES represents, Toyota will be investing $360 million in the plant and hiring 750 new workers.
In the previous report, sources stated that the state of Kentucky had offered Toyota as much as $146.5 million to move ES production to the Georgetown facility.
The press release, posted below, specifies that only the ES350 will be built in Kentucky, so it's likely that the ES300h hybrid will continue to be built in Japan - where all ES models have been built since the car was introduced in 1989. Toyota's Georgetown plant, which currently builds the Toyota... [Read More]

Toyota offered $146.5 million to build Lexus ES in Kentucky |
|
Apr 18, 2013 - 3:41 PM - by Lexus News

Filed under: Sedan, Hirings/Firings/Layoffs, Plants/Manufacturing, Lexus, Luxury
Toyota posted a media advisory yesterday saying that Akio Toyoda, president of Toyota, and Jim Lentz, CEO of Toyota North America, would be making a production announcement tomorrow in New York City, and Automotive News reports that the automaker will be announcing a plan to domestically produce the Lexus ES. According to the report, numerous plants are competing to build the ES in North America, and the State of Kentucky has offered the automaker up to $146.5 million to build the luxury sedan at the Georgetown, KY assembly plant.
If Georgetown gets the ES, which has been built in Japan since its debut in 1989, it would be built alongside the Toyota Camry, which is somewhat ironic since in our review of the 2013 Lexus ES350, we wrote that this ES finally says "goodbye to its Camry roots." In order to get the whole amount offered, the article states that Toyota would have to invest $531.2 million and hire 570 full-time workers at the plant, which doesn't sound all that unreasonable since the...
