2016 Lexus GS Series refreshed - Kelley Blue Book
Using the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance as a backdrop, Lexus announced changes to the 2016 GS Series. While somewhat more understated than the range-topping 2016 GS 350 F Sport previewed last January in Detroit, the high volume versions of this attractive 4-door will benefit from a number of enhancements including a new GS 200t to complement the... Motivation for the new Lexus GS 200t comes from a turbocharged 2. 0-liter/4-cylinder engine that was introduced in the 2015 Lexus NX 200t crossover. Here, output has been bumped slightly -- to 241 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque -- and it's backed by a paddle-shiftable 8-speed Multi-Mode sequential shift automatic transmission in place of the NX's 6-speed and is projected to deliver the... The new GS 200t is rear-drive only, while the GS 350 is offered in rear-drive or AWD configurations. Taking its visual lead from the 467-horsepower V8-fortified GS 350 F, the rest of the 2016 Lexus GS lineup gains a more aggressive overall character punctuated by a bolder spindle grille framed by new Bi-LED headlamps up front. On the rear-drive GS 350, buyers can also add the Lexus Dynamic Handling system with Dynamic Rear Steering. Source: www.kbb.com
