Lexus shall be focused on the FR not the FF even if it's rebadged

What's even better than FR? MR!

If we are talking about their products ten years from today there will be lots of MR, because that's the superior way to package an electric powertrain. Maybe not the best because four in-wheel motors with full torque vectoring is the holy grail.

Once EV becomes mainstream we will see very few FF vehicles because there's zero to negative benefit to do a FF EV or FCV. Well technically they can make a FF EV; it's just a dumb idea.

Update of IS sales:

1IS
2000 - 15,540
2001 - 22,486
2002 - 20,306
2003 - 13,559
2004 - 9,972
2005 - 15,789
2IS
2006 - 54,267
2007 - 54,933
2008 - 49,432
2009 - 38,077
2010 - 34,129
2011 - 29,669
2012 - 27,708
2013 - 35,017
3IS
2014 - 51,358
2015 - 46,430
2016 - 37,289
2017 - 26,482
2018 - 22,927
2019 - 11,900 YTD - January thru September, my projection 20,000
Total = 617,270

The IS line definitely needs to be updated and bring back the IS F with at least 426hp - 504hp (C63S has 503hp and M3 has 425hp) and IS 300h to North America.

But they keep focusing and injecting FF so much in the same time they keep alienated their FR
