Rather than just slapping on a Sport badge and body kit,
Lexus has been tinkering with the
IS220d to make it a sharper drive.


The big change is a tweak to the rear axle ratio to give more urgent response in any gear. The result is 0-62mph in 8.9 seconds, which is curiously the same as the standard model's.
There's the expected sports suspension and 18in alloy wheels, while the interior gains metal-effect trim, sports pedals and suede-effect upholstery.
The
Lexus IS220d is on sale now for £26,925.
