Lexus IS 300h Mk III

The Lexus IS 300h Mk III reaches 60 mph in 6.64 s (100 km/h in 7.22 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.23 s, tripping the lights at 93.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.50 s and the eighth mile in 9.93 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the IS 300h Mk III

The 2013 Lexus IS 300h Mk III is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,720 kg with 220 bhp, which works out at 128 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 128 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.50 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 4,084th quickest to 60 mph, and the 56th quickest of the 112 Lexuss here. Its 93.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Lexus IS 300h Mk III 0-60 time?
The Lexus IS 300h Mk III reaches 60 mph in 6.64 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,084th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Lexus IS 300h Mk III quarter mile time?
15.23 s at 93.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.93 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.50 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Lexus IS 300h Mk III have?
220 bhp and 1,720 kg, which is 128 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Lexus IS 300h Mk III?
Closest here on pace: BMW 1 Series 3-door (F21) 118i 170 (6.66 s), Peugeot 207 RC (6.64 s), Abarth 500 / 595 / 695 595 1.4 T-Jet 145 (6.61 s). Each one can be raced against the Lexus IS 300h Mk III in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Lexus IS 300h Mk III is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
