The GS 350 with F SPORT package was designed to engage driving
enthusiasts with factory engineering and the ability to take performance
to an entirely new level. Unique to the F SPORT package will be
aggressive 19-inch wheels, F SPORT-tuned Adaptive Variable Suspension
(AVS), thicker anti-roll bars, bushing changes, and new larger front
brakes with high friction pads. In addition, rear-wheel drive (RWD)
models will be equipped with 19-inch staggered width wheels and Variable
Gear Ratio Steering (VGRS). Inside, the all-new package also features a
sporty attitude with a new 16-way power driver’s sport seat, unique
interior design treatment and available F SPORT exclusive Cabernet Red
leather interior.
As with the GS 350,
the GS 350 with F SPORT package is powered by an advanced 3.5-liter V6,
with four cams, and four valves per cylinder and dual Variable Valve
Timing with intelligence. At 306 horsepower, it is one of the most
powerful base engines in the segment, as well as the only one with both
port and direct injection. It propels the car from 0-60 mph in 5.7
seconds and at the same time, fuel economy has been improved.
Acceleration from 30 to 50 mph can take just 3.0 seconds, and
improved engine sound characteristics complement the bolder, more
energetic personality of the new GS. The six-speed sequential shift
automatic transmission has paddle shifters and sport driving functions
as standard equipment.
The GS 350 with F SPORT package will offer an optional newly
developed Lexus Dynamic Handling (LDH) system with Dynamic Rear Steering
(DRS) for those seeking more agility. This leading edge platform
technology offers Lexus’ first integration of DRS; Electric Power
Steering; and Variable Gear Ratio Steering. Monitoring vehicle speed,
steering direction and driver inputs, the system calculates the optimum
angle for all four wheels. LDH helps to optimize the vehicle slip angle.
Using VGRS in the front and DRS in the rear, the system can
independently manage both front and rear wheel steering angles to help
improve turn-in response, rear grip, vehicle control and overall agility
when cornering.
The GS 350 RWD with F SPORT package will be exclusively equipped with
19-inch staggered width wheels paired with 235/40/19 front and
265/35/19 rear tires, the widest rear tires ever on a Lexus sedan. The
wider width wheels allow for a sportier look, and will also help provide
added traction. All-wheel drive (AWD) models will be paired with
235/40/19 all-season tires in the front and rear.
Following the inspirational design cues of the IS line-up and CT
200h, the F SPORT package separates itself from the GS line-up with
distinctive exterior details. To display its aggressive attitude, the GS
350 with F SPORT package will be outfitted with a sport front bumper
and rear lower valence, rear lip spoiler, unique F SPORT mesh grille
inserts and F SPORT badging.
The GS 350 with F SPORT package will feature two new colors: Riviera
Red and Liquid Platinum, and also be available in Starfire Pearl, Nebula
Gray Pearl and Obsidian.
