Off the line, the RS e-tron GT hits 100 km/h in 3.34 s versus 5.16 s for the EV6 AWD Long Range. At this point, the RS e-tron GT leads by 1.82 s and sits roughly 13 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the RS e-tron GT is doing 167 km/h against 135 km/h for the EV6 AWD Long Range. The gap is 1.48 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the RS e-tron GT crosses the line in 11.17 s versus 13.61 s. The 2.44 s gap represents roughly 107 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 233 km/h versus 183 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the RS e-tron GT finishes in 20.27 s versus 25.54 s, with a 5.27 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 EV6 AWD Long Range at 185 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 (3.25 kg/hp vs 6.72 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.14 seconds. The 1.82 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, RS e-tron GT wins (3,34 s vs 5,16 s).
RS e-tron GT goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,34 seconds (calibrated simulation).
