Off the line, the SQ2 hits 100 km/h in 4.94 s versus 8.31 s for the Terramar. Despite lacking instant torque, 300 hp of power compensates. At this point, the SQ2 leads by 3.37 s and sits roughly 30 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the SQ2 is doing 133 km/h against 116 km/h for the Terramar. The gap is 2.00 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the SQ2 crosses the line in 13.47 s versus 16.25 s. The 2.78 s gap represents roughly 106 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the SQ2 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 190 km/h versus 160 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the SQ2 finishes in 24.55 s versus 29.41 s, with a 4.86 s lead.
The SQ2 features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the Terramar’s FWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.30 seconds. The 3.37 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
