Buying the 2022 Lexus IS
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2022 Lexus IS; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page puts the 2022 Lexus IS in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Recalls and complaints
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. There are 1 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
What the specs mean
Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, driving through an 8-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The EPA rates it at 9.5 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 29 litres. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $16.63. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Size and space
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. For luggage, 311 litres means about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Best uses
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
A longer test drive
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A test week in the IS tells you more than any review.
What it costs to run
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.63 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
Picking a year and a trim
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
