The Legacy Continues: Lexus Unveils 2027 Lexus is Special Appearance Package
Marking the culmination of the Lexus IS 25th Legacy Tour, Lexus unveiled the 2027 Lexus IS Special Appearance Package at the last stop of the 4-city summer tour in Miami, Florida. For a quarter-century, the IS has bestowed performance, design, and driving passion — honoring the legacy that the Lexus IS has built within the automotive community.
Since 2022, Lexus has marked each year with a new Special Edition or Special Appearance Package, offering IS owners a next level of exclusivity. Continuing that tradition, the 2027 Lexus IS Special Appearance Package, built off the IS 350 F SPORT, introduces a striking new green exterior color called Envious and 19-inch black BBS forged alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin features black NuLuxe-trimmed seats with Ultrasuede inserts, accented by green stitching and satin chrome-finished trim.
All 2027 Lexus IS models, including the Special Appearance Package, are powered by a naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V6 engine producing 311 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft of peak torque. The IS is available in rear-wheel drive, paired with a standard eight-speed automatic transmission, or all-wheel drive, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission.
