Model & Year Overview

Lexus IS 2022

The 2022 IS builds on the 2021 refresh without further mechanical changes — a confirmation that the revised suspension geometry and powertrain calibrations were production-ready from the start. The IS 300 AWD's 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder at 241 horsepower suits year-round Canadian driving well; the IS 350 RWD's 3.5-litre V6 at 311 horsepower delivers the more engaging highway character with a 0–100 km/h time near 5.5 seconds. Lexus's multi-link rear suspension on the refreshed IS corrects the older model's tendency toward understeer — the 2022 tracks more accurately on sweeping highway curves. The 10.3-inch infotainment replaced the trackpad interface with a touchscreen — a practical improvement, though the system's resolution lags German competitors at this price. Lexus Canada's complimentary maintenance for three years is a meaningful ownership benefit. Inspect the F Sport adaptive dampers for any fluid seepage on examples with more than 40,000 km.

Frequently Asked Questions

01

What versions of the Lexus IS are available in Canada for the 2022 model year?

For the 2022 model year, the Lexus IS lineup in Canada spans three engine configurations. The IS 300 AWD features a turbocharged 2.0L 4-cylinder producing 241 hp with an 8-speed automatic; it is sold exclusively in AWD in Canada and starts at approximately $45,300. The IS 350 AWD uses the 3.5L naturally aspirated V6 producing 311 hp (see the IS 350 2022 entry for full details). New for 2022 is the IS 500 F Sport Performance AWD, powered by the 5.0L V8 engine from the LC 500 producing 472 hp — starting at approximately $78,000. The entire 2022 IS lineup carries forward the significant redesign introduced in 2021: a stretched C-shaped LED headlight cluster, a redesigned dashboard, touchscreen interface (8 or 10.3 inches), new exterior colours including Sonic Iridium and Infrared, and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto on navigation-equipped trims. Available trim levels are Standard, Premium, Luxury, F Sport Series 1, F Sport Series 2, and F Sport Series 3, depending on the powertrain. The Lexus Safety System+ 2.5 is standard across the entire IS range for 2022.

02

Is the new 2022 Lexus IS 500 F Sport Performance worth the price premium in Canada?

The 2022 Lexus IS 500 F Sport Performance makes a unique proposition in the Canadian luxury sport sedan segment. Its naturally aspirated 5.0L V8 producing 472 hp and 395 lb-ft of torque — the same engine found in the Lexus LC 500 — delivers an acoustic and dynamic purity that turbocharged competitors simply cannot replicate. At approximately $78,000 in Canada for the AWD version, it undercuts the BMW M3 Competition xDrive (from $93,000) and Audi RS4 (approximately $95,000) by a meaningful margin. The IS 500 AWD achieves 0 to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds. Combined fuel consumption is approximately 13.5 L/100 km per Natural Resources Canada. The primary caveat is the IS platform's age — dating structurally to 2013, making it notably older than the M3's and RS4's current-generation chassis in terms of dynamic sophistication. For the Canadian buyer seeking a naturally aspirated V8 with Lexus reliability, a 4-year/80,000 km warranty, 2-year/32,000 km complimentary maintenance, and a genuinely distinctive sedan that avoids the maintenance costs typical of German performance cars, the IS 500 offers compelling value despite its aging architecture.

03

Is the 2022 Lexus IS lineup well suited for Canadian roads and winter conditions?

The 2022 Lexus IS lineup in Canada is sold exclusively in AWD configuration for the IS 300 and IS 350 trims, making it inherently better prepared for Canadian winters than rear-wheel-drive alternatives. The IS 300 AWD uses a viscous coupling center differential, while the IS 350 AWD uses a Torsen center differential that actively redistributes torque based on traction conditions. The IS 500 AWD features the more sophisticated TVD (Torque Vectoring Differential) system for enhanced dynamic stability. Regardless of AWD configuration, winter tires are essential for safe driving in Canadian conditions — mandatory in Quebec from December 1 to March 15 and strongly recommended across all provinces. Budget approximately $1,400 to $2,200 for a winter tire set on steel rims in 18 or 19-inch fitments depending on the trim level. Standard winter-friendly features on the 2022 IS include front heated seats, heated side mirrors, rear defogger, and remote start via the Lexus Link+ smartphone app for pre-conditioning the cabin during cold starts in Ottawa, Winnipeg, or Quebec City. The drive mode selector includes a Snow mode that reduces throttle sensitivity and adjusts stability control thresholds for slippery surface starts.
