Lexus IS 300 RWD: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the IS 300 RWD rank in its segment?

Among the 56 saloons 2021–2025, the IS 300 RWD ranks 51th of 56 in Combined consumption (10.9 L/100, behind the BMW 420d), 41th of 56 in 0–100 km/h (7.3 s, behind the BMW M4 Competition M xDrive).

How much does the IS 300 RWD cost to run?

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a BMW 420d instead?

The BMW 420d leads in Combined consumption (4.2 L/100 vs 10.9 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the IS 300 RWD vs BMW 420d duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
