Off the line, the 320e hits 100 km/h in 7.46 s versus 8.92 s for the 600e 156. At this point, the 320e leads by 1.46 s and sits roughly 32 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 320e is doing 115 km/h against 115 km/h for the 600e 156. The gap is 1.26 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 320e crosses the line in 15.43 s versus 16.73 s. The 1.30 s gap represents roughly 50 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 320e continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 158 km/h versus 150 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 320e finishes in 28.77 s versus 31.23 s, with a 2.46 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 320e is capped at 220 km/h, the 600e 156 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.
With two plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (8.65 kg/hp vs 10.06 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 14.15 seconds. The 1.46 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 320e G20 wins (7,46 s vs 8,92 s).
320e G20 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 7,46 seconds (calibrated simulation).
