Lexus IS 300 2021 for sale

Lexus IS 300 2021

The 2021 Lexus IS 300 uses a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder producing 241 hp paired with an 8-speed automatic and available AWD — a meaningful drivetrain update for the IS range given Canadian winters. The third-generation IS (XE30) continues with its rear-wheel-drive-biased platform. The IS 300 AWD is the practical choice for year-round Canadian use; the RWD version is sportier but limited in winter utility. Standard Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 is included across the lineup. Depreciation on the IS 300 AWD tracks at approximately 35–42% over three years. Standard insurance. Pre-purchase inspection for any IS 300: AWD transfer unit fluid condition, 2.0T timing chain tensioner status, and the Lexus Remote Touch infotainment interface responsiveness — the trackpad input system has divided owners since its introduction and is not updated on the 2021. The IS 300 competes directly against the BMW 330i xDrive and Audi A4 quattro; it underperforms on cabin technology but leads on long-term reliability and resale support through Toyota-backed Lexus CPO programmes.
