2024 is 500

A shame they won't at least add the 10 speed gearbox for on the LC. Probably takes no effort for them....but no, we get fancy colors.

So while the US manuals aren't up and the US site doesn't show a change in production, Lexus Japan has been updated to reflect that 2024MY started in October of this year. According to them, 2023MY ended in September.
These are the Japanese Owners Manuals so you may struggle to read them. I have yet to go through them so please point out anything you might see. Please bear in mind that some of what you see may not come to the USDM vehicles, such as the pop up hood in the event of an accident.

Edit: The JDM IS kept the old infotainment so I'd say its 100% confirmed that the USDM will as well.

I know this will scrunch a bunch of your panties, but the IS500 is a man's car and men don't need giant touchscreens and updated infotainment. The RC F is the same. Notice which Lexus cars have gotten the updated software: every Lexus SUV (for women), the LC500 (aka "the ultimate secretary's car"), the electric RZ (for women).

There was realistically no shot of anything being changed for the infotainment on this car, or really anything outside a new color and some minor aesthetic changes
