Off the line, the Born VZ hits 100 km/h in 5.73 s versus 7.23 s for the Born. At this point, the Born VZ leads by 1.50 s and sits roughly 10 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Born VZ is doing 138 km/h against 122 km/h for the Born. The gap is 0.87 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Born VZ crosses the line in 13.96 s versus 15.39 s. The 1.44 s gap represents roughly 58 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Born VZ continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 160 km/h versus 160 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Born VZ finishes in 27.45 s versus 28.98 s, with a 1.53 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (160 vs 160 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Born VZ and the Born are governed to 160 km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold — an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.68 kg/hp vs 8.51 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.41 seconds. The 1.50 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
