The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the A110 GT 300 hits 100 km/h in 3.92 s versus 4.56 s for the A110 Pure 252. At this point, the A110 GT 300 leads by 0.64 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the A110 GT 300 is doing 157 km/h against 151 km/h for the A110 Pure 252. The gap is 0.50 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.

At 400 metres standing start, the A110 GT 300 crosses the line in 11.96 s versus 12.61 s. The 0.65 s gap represents roughly 33 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the A110 GT 300 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 215 km/h versus 209 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the A110 GT 300 finishes in 21.76 s versus 22.69 s, with a 0.93 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (272 vs 277 km/h), preventing any comeback.

What the numbers don’t tell you

With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.65 kg/hp vs 4.31 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.59 seconds. The 0.64 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
