GR Yaris vs DS4 PureTech 225 EAT8: chronicle of a drag race at 270 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the GR Yaris hits 100 km/h in 5.55 s versus 7.76 s for the DS4 PureTech 225 EAT8. At this point, the GR Yaris leads by 2.21 s and sits roughly 23 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the GR Yaris is doing 142 km/h against 126 km/h for the DS4 PureTech 225 EAT8. The gap is 1.49 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the GR Yaris crosses the line in 13.58 s versus 15.61 s. The 2.03 s gap represents roughly 86 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the GR Yaris continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 198 km/h versus 178 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the GR Yaris finishes in 24.16 s versus 27.41 s, with a 3.24 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (4.71 kg/hp vs 6.49 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.04 seconds. The 2.21 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Toyota GR Yaris has a clear edge over the DS DS4 PureTech 225 EAT8 to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
