Lexus has revealed the 2025 IS 500 Ultimate Edition, a limited-run model celebrating the legacy of its naturally aspirated V8 sports sedan. Only 500 units will be available in North America when the car arrives this fall.
Powered by a 5L V8 producing 472 hp and 395 lb-ft of torque, the Ultimate Edition sends power to the rear wheels through an eight-speed Sport Direct Shift transmission. Brembo brakes, BBS forged alloy wheels and exclusive red calipers highlight its performance edge.
Finished in a new “Wind” metallic gray paint, the exterior is sharpened with matte black wheels and gloss black accents. Inside, the cabin features Circuit Red and Black upholstery, Ultrasuede accents, red seatbelts and serialized badging. An analog clock with precision laser etching and an exclusive startup animation adds to its uniqueness.
Standard tech includes Lexus Safety System+ 2.5, with adaptive cruise control, lane tracing assist and pre-collision features. Pricing for the limited edition model will be announced closer to launch.
