Design Features & Performance Advantages
- 1.6KW Refined Output for Lexus 2.0T: Delivers 1.6KW of cranking power — precisely matched to the displacement and compression of Toyota's 8AR-FTS 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, ensuring smooth, quiet, and reliable starts consistent with Lexus luxury brand expectations. The 10‑tooth drive gear is calibrated for the Lexus longitudinal RWD platform flywheel.
- Three Lexus Model Line Coverage (GS / IS / RC): This Starter covers three distinct Lexus vehicle lines — the GS mid-size luxury sedan, the IS sport sedan, and the RC sport coupe — all sharing the same 2.0T powertrain, reducing SKU count for luxury car parts distributors.
- Model Nomenclature Transition (200t → 300): Covers both the earlier "200t" badging (2016–2017) and the updated "300" badging (2018) — reflecting Lexus's 2018 model-year naming revision across the GS, IS, and RC lines, where the same 2.0T engine was rebranded from "200t" to "300".
- Luxury-Grade Noise & Vibration Control: The motor incorporates precision-balanced armature and noise-dampening design elements, engineered to meet Lexus NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) standards — a key differentiator for luxury vehicle starters versus standard passenger car units.
