Bluetooth hands-free capability is built into the base audio system, which has a six-disc changer, 13 speakers, and 194 watts of power and has iPod connectivity and Bluetooth audio streaming compatibility. A 300-watt Mark Levinson surround sound system includes ten separate amplifier channels and also has the capability to play audio DVDs and DVD movies.
Optional upgrades for the IS range include a retractable moonroof, ventilated front seats, dynamic radar cruise control, adaptive front lighting, and a backup camera. There's also a navigation system with live traffic data, and the Lexus Enform suite of services available through subscription allows weather sports, and stock information, turn-by-turn guidance, or roadside assistance.
Conclusion
The 2011 Lexus IS 250 and IS 350 sedans have up-to-date connectivity items as part of a strong feature set that stacks up well in any comparison.
