Off the line, the 600e 156 hits 100 km/h in 8.92 s versus 11.80 s for the Tipo 1.4 100 6M. The instant torque of 260 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the 600e 156 leads by 2.88 s and sits roughly 27 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 600e 156 is doing 115 km/h against 103 km/h for the Tipo 1.4 100 6M. The gap is 1.37 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 600e 156 crosses the line in 16.73 s versus 18.72 s. The 1.99 s gap represents roughly 69 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 600e 156 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 150 km/h versus 143 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 600e 156 finishes in 31.23 s versus 33.43 s, with a 2.21 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (192 km/h), the Tipo 1.4 100 6M never recovers its launch deficit.
Electronically capped at 150 km/h, the 600e 156 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.
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 19.43 seconds. The 2.88 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 600e 156 wins (8,92 s vs 11,80 s).
600e 156 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 8,92 seconds (calibrated simulation).
