Keep in mind that the 3.5IS doesn't sell worldwide. The ES, NX, and RX are truthfully more popular models than the IS, so giving them interior makeovers or refreshed infotainment makes more sense than putting such in the current 3.5IS. Still, time will tell. Hopefully, we should be closer to finding out what's going on with the 2023 IS models.
Why would anyone want the new infotainment? You guys like paying a subscription for navigation?
Inhave the new infotainment with nav in my 23 ES and the old infotainment withoit it in my 23 IS. Either of them support Android and apple screen mirroring which gives free navigation if your phone is with you. And smartphone navigation is far superior to the built in Lexus system.
