Cross stitched leather catches people’s eyes, but I personally don’t see anything above-average in its class in the G70 interior. The Mazda3 has a similar level interior. With that said, both are obviously better than the 7-year old IS interior.
The sad thing is that this is the best looking, most cohesive Lexus exterior design outside of the LC. It looks STUNNING. But poor effort on under the skin upgrades and minimal interior upgrades. Regardless of that, I think the new styling will catch people’s eyes and the IS should see a healthy sales rise.
I hope Lexus will use this IS design as a basis for the true next-gen IS. This IS is the purest expression of the design language Lexus brought out with the LF-Gh back in 2011. It’s sad that it’s only being realized almost 10 years later.
