The 2020 Lexus GS F runs counter to what a lot of people expect from the Lexus brand. This is not a bland luxury cruiser. Instead, it's a real driver's sedan thanks to direct steering, excellent composure and a sonorous V8. A case could be made that the GS F is the most fun vehicle the brand offers.
It's fair to point out that the GS' overall design is getting on in years. Thanks to their potent turbocharged engines, sedans such as the BMW M550i and Mercedes-Benz AMG E 53 will easily outsprint the GS F. They also have more of the latest technology and superior infotainment systems. But go for this unassuming Lexus and you'll be rewarded with excellent road manners and a surprising combination of performance and comfort.
Which GS F does MatoCar recommend?
For 2020, Lexus keeps things simple by offering no trim levels or major packages for the GS F. Of the limited options, we'd spring for the Mark Levinson premium surround-sound system and maybe the 19-inch BBS wheels for a bit of extra style.The 2020 Lexus GS F is offered in one trim level with only a handful of available options. The GS F uses a 5.0-liter V8 engine (467 horsepower, 389 lb-ft of torque) coupled to an eight-speed automatic transmission driving the rear wheels.
The GS F is generously equipped with performance and luxury items. It comes standard with 19-inch wheels, LED headlights, an adaptive suspension, large Brembo-branded brakes, a sunroof, auto-dimming mirrors, dual-zone climate control, driver-seat memory settings, perforated leather-trimmed sport seats with heating and ventilation, a navigation system, a 12.3-inch display screen and an 12-speaker audio system. Standard safety systems include adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, and a forward collision warning system with pedestrian detection and automatic emergency braking.
The options, though few, include an upgraded 17-speaker Mark Levinson audio system, unique wheels and a color head-up display.
