To all that trolls who say this Lexus is slow: Its CVT transmission is specially tuned for fuel economy and it has painfully long gear ratios. For example Lexus ES300h with a similar powertrain, but 30 hp less does 0-100 slightly faster although it is considerably heavier. An that difference is only due to the ratios of the CVTs. The IS 300h is for Europe where fuel economy is a priority(the IS 300h is targeted at efficient diesels), on the contrary ES 300h is for the USA where fuel economy is not so important. IS 300h is the only car in its class to go under 100g/km of CO2 emissions. I have driven one, and clocked 0-100 km/h in 6.9 seconds. Have in mind I was driving the basic model with 16"alloys, not 18. If someone considers buying one, they should have in mind that the fuel economy and acceleration can be ruined by the big and fancy wheels.
It's slow from standstill but it's torque and full power comes to play when it's moving. It has exceptional 80-120km/h times. Beats 2l German diesel rivals with ease.
@@patriotabazaj5209 I meant normal diesel rivals ie. 318d, 320d and/or equalent which this car is competing with.. I dont think biTurbo special engine is in that caregory.
Guys.. This is a car for carrying the ficking family not to race, it has a very good engine but it wight a lot, BMW or lexus dont have any model to compet with that
+Ju' H (BMW) It's heavier because of all the elements that makes it more quiet and comfortable. More weight. If you could choose, what would you prefer?

Good point of view. Seems to be impossible 6.9 but I trust you.
Lexus = reliability = no broken wallets like BMW's - Mercedes.
BMW = Big Money Wasted

Great car and 8 seconds is fast enough:-)
esta lento

No way, Passat 2.0BiTdi need 6.1 sec 0-100kmh

But it's a boring car...
BMW is full of life
Boring...but not stay every month in service like bmw..and save your money on fuel,service parts etc.😏
An easy life hack are those throttle controller,. This model is an amazing vehicle,.
I don't know how you done that. Most of the videos I saw 8,3/8,4/8,7. Good job!
downhill :-)
i cant wait for the melody... :D who else feels the same ?
according to video 1:45-1:52 is 7 seconds not 8...
its 7.8s
i counted 7.9, not bad for its weight i guess
Real only engine power?
the lexus is300h f sport have a button sound system change the sound make very very loud
yaseen emad what? No they dont
Sound active control or something like this?
idk why but it sounds like an air plane
owning and driving an rx400h, this is disappointing, the power and the acceleration and calling it f sport...
racingisfun you bought a car of the same drivetrain and still don't understand that it's for economy. Want fast? Get the petrols in
What the name of sound track?
*****, thank you !

8 seconds with 228 horse-power ? just fail ...
Ju' H
It is more comfortable and a better drive than a BMW and it will not breakdown either.

More comfortable and better than a BMW ? Omg seriously what a joke ...

BMW or nothing !
If BMW drives, it drives into repair service. Lexus is MADE IN JAPAN !
Je vais en avoir 1
A Lupo GTi is faster. By like a whole second. Wonder what it's like after getting chipped :D
o0julek0o this is a hybrid. You know? For economy?
8 seconds, thats incredibly disappointing..
Or you could just get the BMW 328i and do 0-60 in less than 6 seconds
Or S60 T6 R-design, have a nasty sounding I6, travel in more comfort and accelerate even faster.
yeah, paying more money and spending more gas
328i loaded to S60R standard stuff is same money ;)
328 is a big shit
promodelred
Or you could buy a Porsche Cayman that will destroy a BMW 328i.
slow car! I don't like electric!
these lexus are soooooo boooorrrinnnngggggggg
says the man who drives a french car
No i drive a 6ltr v8
Soooooooooooo jealous....
