How many seconds does it take for the IZOA to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h?
2 Answers
The IZOA takes 10.3 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h. In terms of power: The IZOA is equipped with the first TNGA 2.0L Dynamic Force Engine, which achieves a world-leading thermal efficiency of 40%. It delivers a maximum power output of 126 kW and a maximum torque of 203 N·m. In terms of safety: For active safety features, the IZOA comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense (TSS), which includes the Pre-Collision System (PCS), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), Automatic High Beam (AHB), and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC). Additionally, the IZOA is equipped with standard safety technologies such as Traction Control (TRC), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA), and Hill-start Assist Control (HAC).
I conducted a test with my IZOA Hybrid, and the actual 0-100km/h acceleration time was around 9.5 seconds. This car uses a combination of a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine and an electric motor. The initial acceleration feels particularly brisk due to the electric motor's instant torque, but it transitions back to a smooth driving style in the later stages. In comparison, fuel-powered SUVs in the same class like the Qashqai typically achieve over 10 seconds, while the hybrid version of the Breeze does it in just over 8 seconds. For the test drive, I recommend switching directly to Sport Mode and turning off the air conditioning. Flooring the throttle will give you a brief moment of front-wheel slip. It's more than adequate for daily driving, but when you need to overtake quickly, remember to use the paddle shifters to downshift and rev up the engine—it's much faster than simply pressing the accelerator.
