Lexus aficionados might recall previous variants of the GS, but the fourth generation of this medium-size luxury passenger car received some excellent updates. Most notably, you now have six different versions of the GS to choose from, giving you more control right from the get-go. The GS now features a lower center of gravity than it used to, and designers at Lexus are showing that off by lowering the rocker molding character line. In addition to some stylistic design changes to the spoiler, bumper, and headlights options (which vary by trim), the GS also boasts seven available exterior colors, three of which are new: Sonic Quartz, Hear Blue Contrast Layering, and Mica Crystal Shine.
Beneath the hood the changes start to get really juicy. Gone are the GS 250 engines, which Lexus has replaced with a 2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Adding in the twin-scroll turbocharger, which works in concert with the intercooler, the new engine can produce 241 brake-horsepower at 5800 rpm, which makes the GS 200 17% more powerful than the engine it's replacing. That’s a lot of power from an objectively smaller engine, so the engineers at Lexus are definitely earning their keep.
