Off the line, the 216d hits 100 km/h in 11.23 s versus 12.34 s for the Dolphin Active 70kW. Despite lacking instant torque, 116 hp of power compensates. At this point, the 216d leads by 1.11 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 216d is doing 105 km/h against 101 km/h for the Dolphin Active 70kW. The gap is 0.35 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 216d crosses the line in 18.21 s versus 18.84 s. The 0.63 s gap represents roughly 22 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 216d continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 146 km/h versus 136 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 216d finishes in 32.65 s versus 34.35 s, with a 1.70 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 216d is capped at 195 km/h, the Dolphin Active 70kW at 150 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.
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 21.36 seconds. The 1.11 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 216d F22 wins (11,23 s vs 12,34 s).
216d F22 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 11,23 seconds (calibrated simulation).
216d F22: 116 hp, ratio 12,24 kg/hp. Dolphin Active 70kW: 95 hp, ratio 14,79 kg/hp.
