Driving Experience In Lexus IS 250c

Lexus IS 250c is the convertible/coupe version of Lexus IS 250c saloon. Lexus engineers have done a lot of work on Lexus IS 250c to make it a pleasurable car. The roof is a three-piece aluminium metal folding roof that folds or unfolds in just 21 seconds. With the roof in place, Lexus IS 250c feels like a top of the line luxury coupe inside. The ride is whisper quiet with the top in place, as a lot of soundproofing has gone into the body of Lexus IS 250c.

In Europe, Lexus IS 250c will have just one engine option, which is V6 205bhp petrol. The engine is matched to a six speed automatic transmission. The car is not sporty and takes around 9 seconds to reach sixty miles per hour. This is largely because it is 100kg heavier than the saloon.

This car is built for impressive drive, and it delivers its objective well enough. The version launched in America has a comparatively larger engine, which makes it sportier. The technology put in the car makes it easy, and safe to drive. The response from steering is good, and the brakes are carefully weighted.

When the top is down, the overall visibility tremendously increase. On the contrary, it is slightly diminished when the top is up because of the small rear view window. The instrument panel formulation of this car is similar to that of saloon. There have been, nevertheless, certain amendments to complement the top down driving conditions. The dial colour is different, and the LED contrast has been augmented.

Changes have been made in the shape of the needles. The positioning of the windshield has been slightly inclined backward to avoid resistance. The climate control mechanism has been installed for top down driving, and it is directly proportional to the speed. This version proposes the safest drive in its type, and has been honoured with five stars in both the American and Euro NCAP tests.

The Lexus IS 250c is very well suited for taking a stately drive in an open top car. The rear seats are not as spacious as would be expected in a luxury car. The Lexus IS 250c should not be mistaken for a sporty convertible just because it comes with an open top. It is an excellent cruiser, which can be handled well, and can cruise at over a hundred miles an hour without any fuss.

If you want to take an impressive cruise in an open top car, then this is an impeccable choice for you. The rear seats are comparatively less spacious than other luxury cars. Even though this car has been incorporated with an open top, it should not be mixed with sport convertibles. It can be driven for over hundred miles an hour without any issues.

The Lexus IS 250c is for people who enjoy driving a stately convertible that is luxurious and safe. It is not a sports convertible, and should not be mistaken for one.
