Off the line, the S6 Sportback e-tron hits 100 km/h in 4.08 s versus 4.22 s for the P7. The 0.14 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the S6 Sportback e-tron is doing 146 km/h against 147 km/h for the P7. The gap is 0.06 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the S6 Sportback e-tron crosses the line in 12.52 s versus 12.54 s. The 0.02 s gap represents roughly 1 m of track
Past 400 metres, the S6 Sportback e-tron continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 191 km/h versus 170 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the S6 Sportback e-tron finishes in 23.58 s versus 25.24 s, with a 1.67 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the S6 Sportback e-tron is capped at 240 km/h, the P7 at 170 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 (4.28 kg/hp vs 4.81 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.49 seconds. The 0.14 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
