What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the ES200?

[LaValeria]

According to official data, the Lexus ES200 has a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 9.1 seconds. The factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in simple terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. The Phideon has a maximum torque of 350 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.1 seconds; the Lexus ES200's 2.0L naturally aspirated engine delivers 173 horsepower and a maximum torque of 208 Nm, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 9.1 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for power delivery and inevitably involves power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Lexus ES200 is equipped with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The Phideon's power-to-weight ratio is 12

I've driven the Lexus ES200 a few times, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration of around 9 seconds. It drives quite smoothly. This model uses a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine with about 167 horsepower, paired with a CVT transmission, offering a modest response. On urban roads, the take-off isn't too aggressive, and overtaking is easy. The slightly heavier weight affects acceleration, but the suspension is tuned for comfort with good noise control. It's very suitable as a daily commuter, being fuel-efficient and reliable. During a test drive, pay attention to the mid-range acceleration feel—after all, it's not a performance car, stability is more important. In terms of safety, the linear acceleration reduces the risk of skidding. It might be a bit slower compared to a BMW 3 Series, but it's more affordable and just right for family use.
