Off the line, the 220d hits 100 km/h in 7.61 s versus 7.96 s for the 208 Hybrid 145 e-DCS6. At this point, the 220d leads by 0.35 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 220d is doing 120 km/h against 120 km/h for the 208 Hybrid 145 e-DCS6. The gap is 0.22 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 220d crosses the line in 15.67 s versus 15.90 s. The 0.23 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the 220d continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 168 km/h versus 166 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 220d finishes in 28.21 s versus 28.57 s, with a 0.36 s lead.
Electronically capped at 235 km/h, the 220d 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 (7.92 kg/hp vs 8.52 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.18 seconds. The 0.35 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
