Off the line, the Atto 3 Extended Range hits 100 km/h in 7.41 s versus 8.05 s for the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220. At this point, the Atto 3 Extended Range leads by 0.64 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Atto 3 Extended Range is doing 121 km/h against 120 km/h for the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220. The gap is 0.46 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Atto 3 Extended Range crosses the line in 15.57 s versus 16.06 s. The 0.49 s gap represents roughly 20 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the situation changes. The Atto 3 Extended Range maxes out at 160 km/h while the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 keeps accelerating towards 233 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.51 s.
Around 922 metres, both vehicles are level. This is the inversion point: the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 overcomes its launch deficit thanks to a 73 km/h higher top speed.
At 1,000 metres, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 finishes in 28.98 s versus 29.19 s. The 0.21 s delta shows an extremely tight race.
Electronically capped at 160 km/h, the Atto 3 Extended Range 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 electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (9.12 kg/hp vs 8.58 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.36 seconds. The 0.64 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
