An Australian pro-golfer has joined the Lexus family as the newest ambassador.

Dimitrios Papadatos will drive the Lexus IS sedan as he represents the global luxury lifestyle brand.

“The Lexus IS is powerful and controlled, just like handling a good driver on the golf course. I am delighted to join the Lexus family from behind the wheel of this dynamic and refined sedan,” Papadatos says.

At 28, Papadatos turned pro in 2012 and since then has claimed several victories on the international golf scene.

Lexus say it is Papadatos’ determination to control his journey that makes him the ‘perfect ambassador’ for the Lexus IS.

Combining its craftmanship and high performance, the Lexus IS will continue to drive Papadatos’ success.

He joins Lexus Australia ambassadors Megan Gale, Ben Shewry, Anthony Minichiello, Kate Waterhouse, Emma Freedman, Neil Perry, Alan Jones, Corey Brown, John Eales and Mark Visser.
