Off the line, the SQ2 hits 100 km/h in 4.94 s versus 9.92 s for the Puma EcoBoost 125. At this point, the SQ2 leads by 4.98 s and sits roughly 32 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the SQ2 is doing 133 km/h against 107 km/h for the Puma EcoBoost 125. The gap is 2.57 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the SQ2 crosses the line in 13.47 s versus 17.29 s. The 3.82 s gap represents roughly 132 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 146 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the SQ2 finishes in 24.55 s versus 31.78 s, with a 7.23 s lead.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.12 kg/hp vs 9.82 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 16.89 seconds. The 4.98 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
