Han EV 200kW 2WD vs Model 3 Standard Range Plus: chronicle of a drag race at 224 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Model 3 Standard Range Plus hits 100 km/h in 5.81 s versus 7.76 s for the Han EV 200kW 2WD. At this point, the Model 3 Standard Range Plus leads by 1.95 s and sits roughly 27 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Model 3 Standard Range Plus is doing 129 km/h against 123 km/h for the Han EV 200kW 2WD. The gap is 1.35 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model 3 Standard Range Plus crosses the line in 14.26 s versus 15.74 s. The 1.48 s gap represents roughly 61 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Model 3 Standard Range Plus continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 171 km/h versus 172 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model 3 Standard Range Plus finishes in 26.61 s versus 28.20 s, with a 1.59 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Han EV 200kW 2WD is capped at 180 km/h, the Model 3 Standard Range Plus at 225 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 electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (7.76 kg/hp vs 7.29 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.56 seconds. The 1.95 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus has a clear edge over the BYD Han EV 200kW 2WD to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
