3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 vs Bmw 520d: chronicle of a drag race at 235 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Bmw 520d hits 100 km/h in 7.21 s versus 7.65 s for the 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8. At this point, the Bmw 520d leads by 0.44 s and sits roughly 17 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Bmw 520d is doing 118 km/h against 120 km/h for the 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8. The gap is 0.56 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 520d crosses the line in 15.24 s versus 15.68 s. The 0.44 s gap represents roughly 18 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows.
At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 520d finishes in 28.10 s versus 28.25 s, with just 0.15 s to spare. The 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 fails to fully close the launch gap.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 235 km/h, the Bmw 520d 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 (8.22 kg/hp vs 8.68 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.95 seconds. The 0.44 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Bmw 520d is slightly faster than the Peugeot 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 to 100 km/h. The edge holds on standing starts but may narrow at higher speeds depending on aerodynamic load.
