Bmw 116 vs Jazz e:HEV: chronicle of a drag race at 206 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Bmw 116 hits 100 km/h in 9.71 s versus 9.90 s for the Jazz e:HEV. At this point, the Bmw 116 leads by 0.19 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Bmw 116 is doing 106 km/h against 106 km/h for the Jazz e:HEV. The gap is 0.20 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 116 crosses the line in 16.88 s versus 17.08 s. The 0.21 s gap represents roughly 8 m of track — barely a car length.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 116 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 146 km/h versus 142 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 116 finishes in 31.31 s versus 31.95 s, with a 0.64 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw 116 is capped at 210 km/h, the Jazz e:HEV 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (11.39 kg/hp vs 11.18 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 17.33 seconds. The 0.19 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Bmw 116 and Honda Jazz e:HEV are virtually tied to 100 km/h. The gap is under a tenth of a second — only the physics engine can settle it step by step.
