GR86 vs e:Ny1: chronicle of a drag race at 223 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the GR86 hits 100 km/h in 6.20 s versus 7.76 s for the e:Ny1. Despite lacking instant torque, 238 hp of power compensates. At this point, the GR86 leads by 1.56 s and sits roughly 18 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the GR86 is doing 132 km/h against 122 km/h for the e:Ny1. The gap is 1.02 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the GR86 crosses the line in 14.35 s versus 15.82 s. The 1.46 s gap represents roughly 59 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the GR86 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 179 km/h versus 160 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the GR86 finishes in 26.10 s versus 29.40 s, with a 3.30 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 160 km/h, the e:Ny1 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 11.83 seconds. The 1.56 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Toyota GR86 has a clear edge over the Honda e:Ny1 to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
