2027 Lexus IS Starts $650 Higher, Special Package Upgrades

Lexus has posted U.S. pricing for the 2027 IS, setting the starting Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price at $47,545, $650 above the outgoing 2026 model. The figure appeared in the brand's online configurator and Lexus says the updated lineup will reach dealers later this year.

The company also confirmed details of a new Special Appearance Package built around the IS 350 F Sport. Lexus first revealed the package during the IS 25th Legacy Tour in late August 2026. When images and options briefly appeared in the configurator, the package was shown with an MSRP of $61,485 for the RWD model and $63,095 for the AWD version.

The Special Appearance Package pairs a new Envious Green exterior with 19-inch black BBS forged alloy wheels. Inside, seats are trimmed in black NuLuxe with Ultrasuede inserts and matching green stitching, and satin chrome-finished accents are applied throughout the cabin. Lexus positions the package specifically around the IS 350 F Sport hardware.

The current IS generation dates to its introduction at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in early 2013 and has received periodic updates, with refreshes in 2017, 2020 and most recently in 2025 for the 2026 model year. In the U.S. the range has been simplified to IS F Sport and F Sport Design grades, offered with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive and powered only by a 3.5-liter V6 rated at 311 hp and a quoted 0 to 60 mph time of 5.9 seconds.

For 2027 Lexus preserved trim-level pricing structure while nudging the base point higher. The outgoing RWD IS 350 F Sport Design started at $46,895, including DPH; the 2027 IS starts at $47,545. Lexus lists the IS 350 F Sport Design AWD at $49,545, the F Sport at $49,845 and the F Sport AWD at $51,845.

Standard equipment across the range includes a sport-tuned Adaptive Variable Suspension, a Torsen limited-slip rear differential on RWD models, the Lexus Premium Sound system or an optional 17-speaker Mark Levinson setup, and Lexus Safety System+ 3.0.

Lexus first showcased the Special Appearance Package during the IS 25th Legacy Tour in late August 2026, and the brand's online configurator provides the pricing and option breakdowns now available to prospective buyers.
