Mustang Mach-E RWD vs 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8: chronicle of a drag race at 233 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Mustang Mach-E RWD hits 100 km/h in 6.04 s versus 7.65 s for the 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8. The instant torque of 430 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the Mustang Mach-E RWD leads by 1.61 s and sits roughly 17 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Mustang Mach-E RWD is doing 129 km/h against 120 km/h for the 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8. The gap is 0.98 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Mustang Mach-E RWD crosses the line in 14.39 s versus 15.68 s. The 1.29 s gap represents roughly 52 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Mustang Mach-E RWD continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 175 km/h versus 167 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Mustang Mach-E RWD finishes in 26.73 s versus 28.25 s, with a 1.51 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (233 km/h), the 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 never recovers its launch deficit.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 180 km/h, the Mustang Mach-E RWD 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 11.95 seconds. The 1.61 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Ford Mustang Mach-E RWD has a clear edge over the Peugeot 3008 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
