Perfecting an automotive marvel demands extensive and rigorous testing at private proving grounds. Here, road courses duplicate every possible on-road scenario —with every type of corner radius, conceivable bank angles and elevation changes encountered when behind the steering wheel. A vehicle’s stability and handling are tested, granting the world’s automakers the means to fine-tune their creations under exacting driving environments.
One famed test track is the Nürburgring Nordschleife in Germany, an automotive mecca known for its gruelling driving conditions. Lexus is no stranger to the historic complex, having developed a number of its iconic models at the course and having raced there, too. Gleaning from its racing experience and in-depth testing on the German track, the Japanese carmaker has built its proving grounds right at home, where the all-new Lexus IS was made.
