Tiny, I appreciate this. I
Tiny, I appreciate this. I was not clear in my writing and I should do better. I meant to say that the IS was the number two "car" Lexus sells, which is true. My follow up sentence was meant to clarify that, but it was not enough. The follow up was " It is Lexus’ third most popular vehicle with the RX crossover in first place by a mile." I cannot tell you for sure which model year the Lexus IS 200t will be introduced as. I asked Lexus this directly yesterday at an event at which I drove the new turbo engine in the NX. The engine is good. Better than the "250" in many surprising ways. Will it be a 2015? Or a 2016? I think a lot depends on the production volume of the NX. Trust me. The 250 is going away and the 200t is coming. The model year is anyone's guess. Remember, Lexus currently sells a 2014 IS F and a 2015 IS 350 sedan. Toyota calls its current Camry a "2014.5." Model years are somewhat arbitrary. In the "Related Stories" I go into the detail I can on the 200t. Your comment was a good reminder for me to be more thorough in my proofing and more clear overall. Thanks for reading.
