Lexus IS300 2026 Price in UAE

The IS300 is the four-cylinder IS: a turbocharged 2.0-litre making 241 BHP, driving the rear wheels, in the tightened-up third-generation body Lexus revised in 2020. In the UAE it is the entire entry point to the model — one trim, one engine, no options ladder to work through.

How much does the Lexus IS300 cost in the UAE?

There is one IS300 and it costs AED 185,000 — the Premier 2.0L. That single figure is the whole IS300 story here: everything above it in the range is a V6 F Sport car and a different proposition altogether. For a rear-drive premium saloon with a full driver-assistance suite as standard, it lands under most of the German competition.

Lexus IS300 or Lexus ES250?

The IS300, if the drive matters. It is rear-wheel drive, shorter and considerably more alert than anything else Lexus offers at this money, and the turbo four has more mid-range punch than the ES's naturally aspirated engine. The ES250 is the bigger, quieter, more comfortable car with far more rear-seat space. The wider IS range adds V6 F Sport models above this one.

What does a Lexus IS300 cost to run in the UAE?

Cheap for the category. A claimed 11 Km/L from the turbocharged four is competitive with far smaller cars, it takes standard fuel, and the running gear is shared widely across Toyota's rear-drive platforms so parts are neither scarce nor exotic. Al-Futtaim Lexus is the distributor, with workshops in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Tyres are the one recurring cost that bites, given the staggered rear-drive setup.

Does the Lexus IS300 hold its value, and what should you watch for as it ages?

It holds about 71% after three years and about 57% after five, ahead of the roughly 66% and 51% that Japanese premium models in the UAE average over those periods — a strong result for a compact saloon. The IS300s CarSwitch inspects in the UAE run to a median of around 100,000 km with no notable mechanical pattern, a reasonable early track record for a turbocharged engine. Read the inspection report for accident history and suspension condition.
