2019 Lexus IS vs 2020 Lexus IS
Two adjacent model years of the Lexus IS, side by side. Every figure is a raw NHTSA/EPA count — not normalised by how many were sold.
Side by side: no recorded recall campaigns for either, and 2019 IS has fewer recorded owner complaints (2 vs 4). Neither has NHTSA crash ratings, and 2020 IS has EPA fuel-economy data.

How to read this
- A green check marks the lower raw count — fewer recorded issues, not a declared winner.
- Complaint totals are not normalised by vehicle population; a big-seller shows more of everything.
- Where a rating or EPA record is absent, that is missing data — not evidence of safety.
