Lexus IS300 2026 Price in Saudi Arabia

The Lexus IS300 is a well-known offering within the Lexus lineup, recognized for its unique character and appeal among drivers who prefer its design and overall personality. Across different years and versions, the Lexus IS300 has maintained a presence in the market thanks to its distinct identity and the driving experience it provides. Whether considered for daily use or specific needs, it remains a model that attracts interest from a wide range of buyers.

How much does the Lexus IS300 cost in Saudi Arabia?

Two specifications and nothing to option beyond them: SAR 185,265 for the Elegant (RWD) and SAR 206,195 for the Excellence (RWD). Both are the same car mechanically, so the step between them buys equipment rather than pace — which is worth knowing before you assume the dearer badge is the quicker one.

Which Lexus IS300 trim is the one to buy?

Excellence, if you can stretch. The base Elegant covers the fundamentals and drives identically, but the Excellence fills in the cabin and convenience equipment that make the car feel like the premium product it is priced as. Neither changes the engine, the gearbox or the rear-drive chassis, so there is no wrong answer here — only a budget one.

Lexus IS300 or Lexus ES250?

The IS300, if you want to enjoy the driving. It is shorter, lighter and rear-driven, with a turbo four that pulls harder in the mid-range than the ES's naturally aspirated engine. The ES250 is the more sensible family choice: bigger, quieter and far roomier behind. The full IS range adds V6 models above this pair.

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

Well. It holds about 71% after three years and about 57% after five, against roughly 66% and 51% for Japanese premium models in the Kingdom — among the better curves in the compact saloon class. The IS300s CarSwitch inspects run to a median of around 65,000 km, so most are still relatively young cars; at that mileage the things to check are accident history and tyre condition rather than the drivetrain.
