Off the line, the IS 350 F Sport RWD hits 100 km/h in 5.76 s versus 7.18 s for the 508 PureTech 225 EAT8. At this point, the IS 350 F Sport RWD leads by 1.42 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the IS 350 F Sport RWD is doing 137 km/h against 124 km/h for the 508 PureTech 225 EAT8. The gap is 0.91 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the IS 350 F Sport RWD crosses the line in 13.83 s versus 15.28 s. The 1.45 s gap represents roughly 60 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the IS 350 F Sport RWD continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 193 km/h versus 172 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the IS 350 F Sport RWD finishes in 24.69 s versus 27.49 s, with a 2.80 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) vs 240 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Electronically capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the IS 350 F Sport RWD never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor — it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.58 kg/hp vs 6.88 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.07 seconds. The 1.42 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
