Off the line, the Civic hits 100 km/h in 7.65 s versus 8.12 s for the 5 E-Tech Electric 150. Despite lacking instant torque, 178 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Civic leads by 0.47 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Civic is doing 121 km/h against 117 km/h for the 5 E-Tech Electric 150. The gap is 0.23 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Civic crosses the line in 15.65 s versus 16.13 s. The 0.48 s gap represents roughly 19 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Civic continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 167 km/h versus 150 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Civic finishes in 28.30 s versus 30.62 s, with a 2.32 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Civic is capped at 210 km/h, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 at 150 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.
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 13.23 seconds. The 0.47 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
