Off the line, the 812 Superfast hits 100 km/h in 2.93 s versus 5.52 s for the A290 GTS 192kW. Despite lacking instant torque, 799 hp of power compensates. At this point, the 812 Superfast leads by 2.59 s and sits roughly 19 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 812 Superfast is doing 182 km/h against 138 km/h for the A290 GTS 192kW. The gap is 2.28 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 812 Superfast crosses the line in 10.37 s versus 13.81 s. The 3.43 s gap represents roughly 150 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 812 Superfast continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 249 km/h versus 185 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 812 Superfast finishes in 18.81 s versus 25.18 s, with a 6.37 s lead.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.16 seconds. The 2.59 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 812 Superfast wins (2,93 s vs 5,51 s).
812 Superfast goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 2,93 seconds (calibrated simulation).
