Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Toyota GR Corolla is the quicker car,
covering it in 13.39 s at
105.2 mph against the Lexus IS 250’s
15.48 s — a margin of
2.09 s. To 60 mph the Toyota GR Corolla takes
4.85 s and the Lexus IS 250
7.06 s.
Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass,
rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures.

Is the Toyota GR Corolla or the Lexus IS 250 faster?
The Toyota GR Corolla. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 13.39 s to the Lexus IS 250's 15.48 s, a margin of 2.09 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 4.85 s against 7.06 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Toyota GR Corolla 0-60 time?
The Toyota GR Corolla reaches 60 mph in 4.85 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.39 s at 105.2 mph.
What is the Lexus IS 250 0-60 time?
The Lexus IS 250 reaches 60 mph in 7.06 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.48 s at 91.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Toyota GR Corolla trips the lights at 105.2 mph and the Lexus IS 250 at 91.1 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 9 of 10 for the Toyota GR Corolla and 9 of 10 for the Lexus IS 250. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
