2020 Lexus IS 300h Hybrid 223 PS TOP SPEED AUTOBAHN DRIVE POV

[@arturnir]

If you are happy with top speed of 210 kph/130 mph , fuel consumption of 42mpg/6.7 liters per 100k. You cannot choose better. 0-62mph/0-100kph takes 7.5 sec normal mode. Sports mode starting from first (virtual gear) got it 7.09. Most importantly car is trouble free and service is very reasonable compere to competitors.

[@AI-qd4vb]

Hahaha, more like 8.5 secs... Not even driving downwards will you get that Lexus under 8 secs... Sport mode does absolutely nothing. And if driving above 120kph you'll get more like 8-10 L/100km... That battery pack is a nest of issues that costs thousands of euros to replace and service can almost only be done at their dealers. Its expensive as fuck and totally average... Any comparable premium car, even in the 2010s when it was originally released, were faster and more efficient. The diesels especially would blow it out of the water.

[@arturnir]

@@AI-qd4vb Not a Lexus driver obviously. So far the car is trouble free. Also Lexus Relax apply so every service my warranty is extended for another 12 months. Car is limited to 210 km/h so in the end 320d 184 or 2.0 Tdi 190 have a grater top speed. Acceleration wise 0-200 Lexus IS way better. Fuel consumption as I mentioned before 6.7 doing 140 km/h on motorway, congested city driving 5.0. Would not ever change this car for diesel again.

@@AI-qd4vb The Toyota/Lexus hybrid systems are as realiable as it can get. You get 10years and 350k km warranty the powertrain and batteries anyway. These cars don't break down like the German ones and it's very cheap to upkeep. Maintenance in dealers are almost as cheap as for basic Toyota cars. And the power, IS300h will blow basic 2.0l turbodiesels out of the water in real world situations, such as 60-120km/h and so on.

Other fact: However greatly dissappointed, because stopped at the border just to fuel up the car, so I don't have to stop at the Germans, I fueled up the half+ tank for something 48€-s, and got a charge summ up to -110£, dunno how, but obvious was too late when I realized it, because I was far away from that station...

For me, thé Real Bad thing in this car is the sound. The false sound is stupid because it's always late, continue when it's in EV mode and don't exist in eco mode.

I know for a fact they put those limiters to protect the electric battery so i wouldn't delete them

[@arturnir]

My 0-100 time was measured with a stop watch. I don't have racelogic or other data logging equipment. Car was also matched against two of my colleagues cars, 250cdi (204hp) Mercedes C class and BMW 320d (190hp) for 0-200. In both cases Lexus won achieving 200 km/h in ~ 30 sec. Fuel consumption result of 6.7 literss per 100km is based on daily driving to work onboard computer results, covering 30 km one way. Journey covers 10 km in congested traffic and 20 km motorway run doing between 140-150 km/h. When driving in the urban areas only, you can achieve way better result oscillating in around 5.0l/100km. Top speed of 210 km/h is the maximum speed (according to the speedometer, limited to protect hybrid system as far a I know). Summarizing I didn't mean to put anyone in doubt, I have only shared my experience with my car. I hope this helps.

[@AvantiMoltoVeloce]

Why do these hybrid cars have to be so slow? Is it related to the drivetrain they have? This one looks like it could easily reach 240 kmH if it was not for the limiter

It is limited to protect battery. Very low number of users will go 200+ , to unlock potential it would demand better cooling or battery= more expensive. Lexus gs450h can go 250

When normal driving it's just super smooth in the is300h. Mainly because of the 140hp electric motor in the e-cvt gearbox. Only when full throttle you hear the engine rev up. Takes some time getting used to but it's great.

[@03Deltaintegrale]

Normal driving is where the IS300h excels. The cvt is super smooth since there's no actual gears. It's only when you're flooring the accelerator does it make a tiresome sound. I used to own BMW E46 325ci and I loved that car and the straight six sound but the repair costs killed that love pretty quickly. I've now owned the IS250 and IS300H over 4 years and not had a single repair outside of normal servicing.

As far as I know, there's not. You're right to assume it's not power limited, but there's a technical reason why they can't go faster.

@@Ramzes945 good point, didnt catch that two cars with the same body have a different top speed. it only leaves the gearbox. the max rpm for the MG2 electric motor limits the top speed if no additional gearbox is added in the hybrid model (some cars like the gs450h have an additional gearbox to allow for a higher top speed).

Understand if you are a more spirited driver, BMW offers more on that front (better handling, punchier performance). I still think Lexus is more comfortable and the quality of everything is better (inside/leather quality, paint quality, reliability, etc.). Germans are way ahead in infotaiment though. Opinions, some people tends to hate Lexus.

Talk to me in a year when your Wallets been smashed to pieces.

[@xkky6126]

I had a 2016 bmw 420d. You cant compare the quality. The handling is way better with a bmw. But now with my is300h i feel free. Love the comfort and the cheap insurance and maintenance. If i want to spend so much money again for insurance and maintenance i will buy a V8. Everything else is not better its a waste of my money.

Corre poco verdad , no sirve ni para que te quiten el carnet , mínimo 280 por hora

[@nwzz]

Lol

[@12123188]

180.....can drive that with my 21 year old 84hp Opel Astra or 29 year old Audi 80 with 90hp. The heck, even a 72 hp Mercedes 200d with a 5 speed gearbox can hit that speed🤣 Nice that this one can go faster.

[@pozejstroniedrogi8702]

Every new Volvo is limited up to 180km/h. In fact, You have not that much unlimited speed Autobahn left in Germany. BTW, Lexus is limited to 200km/h, not 180, and still, this is more then enough.

[@AC-kq5de]

It is limited by ECU due to the battery pack (safety).. only GS450H hits the 250 km/h without efforts.

[@milosza1384]

@@AC-kq5de it’s not because of battery pack but max RPM of the electric motor.

[@fredericgouttefangeas6294]

Tru...but not to hard to do . Lexus don t have premium model with power. The IS got 223 HP but dont go over220 max speed. :( But this car ils so nice to drive 0 problème. You Can go Évry where. IS a very good and sûre car

[@AA-os1sg]

The IS would smoke an A3 believe me he wasnt even trying!

[@DimitriyLee]

Thanks so much, helped to make decision! It's just a joke this engine, sounds like there is not enough gear))), for the price it doesn't balance any economy performance and quality with fake leather interior, compare to previous great IS generations with beautiful V6 sound.

[@AndyGrouch]

It's not super fast car but it's great to drive and super comfortable on long journeys and the interior is very high quality. I love it. Better than A4 for sure.

[@fikofikret1522]

No other car with 2.5 liter engine comes close in consumption. If u want performance or u want a really fast car u get the gs450h. U dont buy a lexus to race but u buy one because u want to drive the most reliable car brand in the world. If reliability is not your thing u can go for bmw or a audi.

[@77funtomas]

You can buy this IS version with V6 engine as well, you expert..
