What type of gas does a Lexus use?

I just bought a (non-hybrid) Lexus. I don’t want to fill it up with the wrong gas and hurt my engine. What type of gas does a Lexus use?

Great question! Using the recommended type of gas is important for your engine’s health. There is a range of recommended gas types, depending on the type of
Lexus
you have.
For sedans:
  • An
    ES
    (regular or hybrid), uses 87 octane (regular fuel).
  • An IS, GS, or LS, uses 91 octane (premium fuel).
For SUVs:
  • A UX (regular or hybrid), RX, and NX Hybrid all take 87 octane (regular fuel)
  • An NX, RX hybrid, GX, and LX, it’s recommended you use 91 octane (premium fuel).
Another way to treat your Lexus right is by getting a good
