THE EVOLUTION OF F AND F SPORT

In addition to the SEMA display and project cars, Lexus is announcing an evolution of the F and F SPORT strategy, which started in 2008 with the legendary IS-F. Beginning with the 2022 IS 500 F SPORT Performance, the current Lexus performance range will expand from F SPORT and F to four distinct tiers: F SPORT Design, F SPORT Handling, F SPORT Performance and F. Each tier will include models with a unique range of performance enhancements.

• F SPORT Design: For those that appreciate bold and unmistakable style, these vehicles may feature sport-inspired exterior design, including unique front and rear bumpers, grille and wheels.
• F SPORT Handling will build on Design with sport-tuned suspension components honed at the track, including Adaptive Variable Suspension. Guest can expect confidence-inspiring cornering and responsiveness from the all-new 2022 NX and LX.
• F SPORT Performance: In addition to the updated suspension components, these models may receive a higher performance powertrain, as seen in the 2022 IS 500.
• F: As the highest expression of Lexus performance, F models will be further upgraded with innovative components developed for the racetrack, including upgraded brakes, advanced aerodynamics and lightweight materials.

Moving forward, future Lexus models will adopt this new performance strategy. More details will be announced soon.

HIRAKU & TOWNSEND BELL STREET PERFORMANCE IS 500

The 2022 Lexus IS 500 represents the F SPORT Performance pinnacle for the Lexus sports sedan. From the factory, the model marries a race-bred 472-hp 5.0-liter V8 with the thoughtfully executed sedan details people have come to expect from Lexus. For the 2021 SEMA Show, Lexus partnered with Hiraku Co. and Lexus ambassador, Townsend Bell, to develop a uniquely appealing street performance themed IS 500 build.

STYLING

The IS 500’s athletic lines serve up the perfect canvas for an exterior treatment that adds presence in the form of a one-off 3D printed body kit. Designed by Hiraku Co., the kit involves a front lip spoiler, side steps, rear diffuser, front fenders, bumper canards, rear roof spoiler and rear bumper garnish, complemented by a Seibon carbon fiber hood and trunk. The body is then covered in a subtly retina-piercing vinyl body wrap that offers a modern take on the traditional Lexus spindle styling cues.

PERFORMANCE

This IS 500’s street performance envelope is expanded with a few tasteful modifications to enhance the V8’s breathing. On the induction side, sits a custom A’PEXi induction box with a TOMS Racing Carbon Fiber suction pipe. Spent fumes exit through an A’PEXi N1 Evolution Extreme Quad Ti-tip exhaust system that puts the 2UR-GSE V8’s melody on blast.

Enhanced and more sudden throttle control is also part of the mix thanks to the addition of a Shiftpower 4.0 App-controlled throttle control by Beat Soni.

HANDLING

The sport sedan’s chassis has been stiffened for better reflexes with the help of TOMS chassis braces over the front and rear suspension. An A’PEXi N1 EXV 32-way adjustable coilover system helps keep the car planted. Rotiform LAS-R wheels with one-of-a-kind aerodisc covers add a sense of retro-modern styling. These extra-wide 20-inch wheels are wrapped in Nitto Invo rubber along with a Brembo GT braking system with custom-painted calipers to help provide the necessary stopping power.
