5008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 vs Bmw 116i: chronicle of a drag race at 201 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Bmw 116i hits 100 km/h in 10.53 s versus 11.82 s for the 5008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8. At this point, the Bmw 116i leads by 1.29 s and sits roughly 26 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Bmw 116i is doing 104 km/h against 102 km/h for the 5008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8. The gap is 0.99 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 116i crosses the line in 17.45 s versus 18.51 s. The 1.05 s gap represents roughly 37 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 116i continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 143 km/h versus 142 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 116i finishes in 32.17 s versus 33.30 s, with a 1.13 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (201 vs 199 km/h), preventing any comeback.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 200 km/h, the Bmw 116i never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor — it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (12.98 kg/hp vs 12.11 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 19.52 seconds. The 1.29 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Bmw 116i has a clear edge over the Peugeot 5008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
