The new generation launched for 2021 returns a year later with some serious ammunition. We’re talking about the IS 500 F SPORT Performance featuring a 5.0-litre V8 engine that cranks out 472 horsepower and 395 pound-feet of torque. This model can go from 0-100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds. The other two available engines are a 241-horsepower four-cylinder and a time-tested V6 producing 260 or 311 horsepower depending on the trim level.
