CarGurus Analysis: 2025 Lexus IS

Summary
With 948 currently listed for sale and an average price of $45,913.00, 35.7% of 2025 Lexus IS models for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
89.9% of 2025 Lexus IS models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2025 Lexus IS stands out as a compact luxury sports sedan that has long leaned into driving enjoyment. It is the entry-level model in the Lexus lineup, and its comparatively low price point and compact proportions help explain why it appeals to younger buyers. It also has a broad performance history, having been sold over the years as a wagon, a convertible, and with a high-performance V8, which gives the nameplate a wider personality than many rivals.
For 2025, the IS sits in the third generation and benefits from the updates that arrived for the 2021 model year, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a touchscreen display, and standard Lexus Safety System+ with features such as automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, automatic high beams, and lane-trace assist. Standard equipment also includes NuLuxe synthetic leather seats, an eight-inch infotainment screen, passive entry, push-button start, dual automatic climate controls, and 18-inch wheels. Available features include a 17-speaker Mark Levinson premium audio system, an F Sport Package, a power moonroof, and a 10.3-inch infotainment screen with navigation.
Its strengths are balanced by some familiar compromises. The IS is praised for being fun to drive and for its easy-to-use technology, but it is also noted for having not much cargo space, cramped back seats, and poor fuel economy. That mix makes the 2025 Lexus IS especially appealing to buyers who want a compact luxury sedan with a sporty character and modern tech, while accepting that it is not the roomiest or most efficient choice.

It also brings modern tech and standard safety equipment, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a touchscreen display, and Lexus Safety System+ with automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, automatic high beams, and lane-trace assist. That makes it a strong fit if you want a sporty luxury sedan with easy-to-use technology, while accepting that it is not the roomiest choice.
35.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which suggests there is still some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2025 Lexus IS reliable?
The 2025 Lexus IS benefits from a familiar third-generation formula and a well-established set of standard features, which can make it appealing if you want a proven luxury sedan rather than something newly redesigned. Its easy-to-use technology and standard advanced safety equipment also support a low-drama ownership experience.
At the same time, you should still expect the usual used-car variables to matter more than the badge alone. For long-term ownership, condition and maintenance history will matter most because a sporty luxury sedan can become expensive if it has been neglected.
What should I look for when buying a used 2025 Lexus IS?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 89.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should prioritize a history report first, then inspect the car closely for signs of prior damage, uneven wear, or poor repairs. Focus on overall condition, because a clean-looking listing can still hide issues that affect long-term ownership costs.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2025 Lexus IS?
This is a moderate market, so you can shop selectively without expecting every listing to be a bargain.
- Deal availability: 35.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 960 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 3.22% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 89.6% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $45,626.12, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2025 Lexus IS's resale value?
The current average of $45,859 sits slightly below last year's $47,385.
That softer pricing suggests the market has moved in buyers' favor, which can help you if you're shopping now. For a future seller, it also means resale value may be more sensitive to mileage, condition, and equipment than it would be in a stronger pricing environment.
If you keep the car in clean condition and avoid overpaying up front, you should be better positioned when it is time to sell. A well-kept example with desirable features should hold up better than one with visible wear or a rough history.
Should I buy a 2025 Lexus IS or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2025 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2025 if:
- 35.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 89.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 3.22% compared with last year.
Consider the 2026 if:
- It adds a redesigned exterior and a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen.
The bottom line: The 2025 is the better primary path if you want a sporty compact luxury sedan with a softer market and plenty of listings to compare. If you are more focused on the newest tech and refreshed styling, the 2026 is the better alternative, but price-sensitive buyers will likely find the 2025 easier to justify.
