Sculpted fenders

Up front, the bulging fenders have been sculpted to contain the wide 19" wheels and enhance the IS F's sleek aerodynamics. In addition, a vent at the rear of the fender helps suck hot air from the wheel well to aid brake cooling and help optimise stopping performance.

Aggressive front air dam

The front bumper and grille have been designed for maximum airflow into the engine, for improved cooling. In addition, lower air ducts on each side help redirect airflow across the brake discs and rotors, to help cool the brakes.

Aerodynamics and ground effects enhancements

The IS F not only slips along with an impressively low 0.30 coefficient of drag. As speed increases, so does the downforce. The underbody ground effects package which includes Formula One inspired composite farings optimised through extensive development and testing at Fuji Speedway.

Pipe quartet for a heavy metal sound

At the rear, quadruple tailpipes not only assert a distinctive look. Engineers have carefully tuned the exhaust note, ensuring the sound of the IS F at full throttle is unlike anything you'll hear on the streets.

19" BBS forged alloy wheels

Specialist wheel maker BBS, an official supplier to Formula One, has engineered wheels which are lighter than conventional alloys for reduced unsprung weight. The forging process ensures a denser alloy with optimum grain structure for incredible strength. These 8" wide front wheels and 9" rears even help push air across the brakes to aid cooling.

Headlights that can handle the corners

Fortunately the speed of light is able to keep up with the IS F. Powerful High Intensity Discharge (HID) low beams are redirected around sharp bends by a high response Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS). Remarkably, higher light output is achieved with lower power consumption.

A Smart Key Card for faster getaways

Gone is the conventional mechanical key. Instead a Smart Key Card, barely thicker than a credit card, allows you to unlock the doors by simply gripping the handle, without ever removing the card from your pocket. Once inside, you can start the vehicle at the touch of a button. A mechanical key is discreetly concealed within the card, for emergency use.
