Lexus GS 200t replaces GS 250, on sale in Australia in December - PerformanceDrive

Continuing the rollout of the new 2. 0-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder engine, the Lexus GS 200t is the next model in line. It replaces the GS 250. The new 2. 0-litre turbo is, in our opinion, overdue. It is slowly being introduced as the replacement to the rather thirsty and low-torque 2. 5-litre naturally aspirated V6. As is the case with the GS 200t, which will replace the GS 250 in Australia in December. Under the bonnet sits a 2. 0-litre turbo four-cylinder engine producing 180kW of power and 350Nm of torque. It’s matched to an eight-speed sports automatic transmission with rear-wheel drive. Aside from the new powertrain, the GS 200t also debuts a slight styling refresh. Lexus says safety has been enhanced as well, with standard Lexus Safety System + comprising of lane keeping assist, Pre-Collision System (PCS), Intelligent High Beam (automatic), and all-speed radar cruise control. The GS 200t arrives in Australia in December. He's obsessed with driving, having played with Matchbox cars until he was tall enough to drive a real one. Source: performancedrive.com.au
