Lexus IS 250C Vs Other Lexus Cars
The thrill of driving a powerful convertible with the top down, and the roaring engine pumping adrenaline into your body, and the wind ruffling your hair is unmatchable. From teenagers to adults, Lexus IS 250C has become a passion for all, and those who have experienced the exhilaration of driving one would never agree for anything less.
The Lexus IS 250C merges the timeless fascination of an open-roof car with the refinement, and all-season functionality of a luxury coupe. What made it so unique from other convertibles is its three-part retractable roof that operates in only 20 seconds.
Lexus ES 350C is much cheaper than IS 250C with a more strong engine, and superior performance. The latter is installed with a 3.5 L, 272 HP V6 engine. IS 250C has 2.5 L, 204 HP V6 engine, and this is the point where the difference lies. Lexus GS 450h is unmatched by its 3.5 L, 340 HP V6 engine.
Lexus IS 250C gives you the highest fuel economy especially on highways: 29 mpg, as compared with ES 350, which gives 27 mpg and GS 450h, giving round about 25mpg on highways. IS 250 is a moderately heavy car, seconded only after the GS 450h car. It weighs up to 3814 Ibs. The outer dimensions of IS250h gives a trimmer look as compared to other models of Lexus.
The interior of Lexus IS 250C is spacious, and comfortable with the capacity to seat 4 passengers, with slightly narrowed shoulder, and hip room in contrast to other Lexus models like ES 350C, and the GS 450h, which can easily accommodate 5 passengers.
The tilt steering, cruise control, and the telescopic steering columns are fixed in a standardised manner. Similarly, the air conditioning, safety, and security features, anti-theft lock are similar as compared to other Lexus cars. However, it does not provide the feature of rear side air bags, which are installed in some of the other Lexus models like ES350, and GS 450h.
All Lexus cars are equipped with driver-multi adjustable power seats, and standard power windows. Lexus IS 250C has been manufactured to accentuate the aerodynamics, NVH levels, torsional rigidity, and improved safety performance for an advanced and enjoyable experience of driving. It is almost similar to the IS saloon in many aspects, like its exterior design, engine power, and a few interior aspects. Its bonnet, door mirrors, headlamps, and door handles are almost alike with that of IS saloon. However, some of the other external features have been redesigned to suit its folding roof.
The widely opening doors along with a single touch fold, and slide mechanism of the front seats are designed to make rear seat access easier.
The acoustic glass windscreen incorporated to reduce wind noise, and the revised chassis, and body shell to control sound, vibration, and ruggedness altogether are the key features, which have brought this pacesetter into consideration for future Lexus sports cars by the auto-critiques.
