Off the line, the IS 300 AWD hits 100 km/h in 7.70 s versus 8.14 s for the Bmw 220d Gran Tourer. At this point, the IS 300 AWD leads by 0.44 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the IS 300 AWD is doing 122 km/h against 118 km/h for the Bmw 220d Gran Tourer. The gap is 0.21 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the IS 300 AWD crosses the line in 15.66 s versus 16.10 s. The 0.44 s gap represents roughly 18 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the IS 300 AWD continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 173 km/h versus 164 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the IS 300 AWD finishes in 27.75 s versus 28.97 s, with a 1.22 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (210 vs 220 km/h), preventing any comeback.
The IS 300 AWD features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the Bmw 220d Gran Tourer’s FWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the IS 300 AWD is capped at 210 km/h, the Bmw 220d Gran Tourer at 220 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit — it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (7.08 kg/hp vs 8.18 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.70 seconds. The 0.44 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
