SO much better. I just came out of a 2018 IS350 and it was the weakest part of that car (tech in general).

OP, you really should have played with a car at the dealer before plunging in with a purchase.

I think it works well. Has it's quirks but they all do.

Who knew putting the car into dynamic mode would fix the lackluster navigation system?

I've said this a million times, use your phone! The nav in the phone is always up to date, gives you routes around traffic jams and couldn't be easier to use. I use an iPhone for all my nav. No need for updating anything, it's automatic.

I consistently get 500 plus when filling up. I usually show 28 to 32 mpg in my long term memory that I reset with every fill up. But I wouldn't trust it to go that far even if I only did highway miles.

My highest was 425 but I haven’t done any really long distance trips yet.

The mileage estimator is a far more inaccurate piece of tech than the navigation. My mpg registers around 22, but I get about 435 mi estimate with each fill up. I once got 470 after a road trip. But that is at least 75-100 miles off. I can't trust that estimate.
