Off the line, the RS e-tron GT hits 100 km/h in 3.33 s versus 4.37 s for the SQ6 Sportback e-tron. At this point, the RS e-tron GT leads by 1.04 s and sits roughly 9 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the RS e-tron GT is doing 163 km/h against 145 km/h for the SQ6 Sportback e-tron. The gap is 0.86 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the RS e-tron GT crosses the line in 11.31 s versus 12.68 s. The 1.36 s gap represents roughly 66 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the RS e-tron GT continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 227 km/h versus 200 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the RS e-tron GT finishes in 20.60 s versus 23.17 s, with a 2.57 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the RS e-tron GT is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the SQ6 Sportback e-tron at 230 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit — it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.57 kg/hp vs 4.76 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Unknown).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.72 seconds. The 1.04 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
