Off the line, the 208 PureTech 130 EAT8 hits 100 km/h in 9.78 s versus 10.04 s for the Jazz e:HEV. Despite the faster sprint time, the Jazz e:HEV is 14 m further along the track at this moment: stronger low-speed acceleration offsets a slower run beyond 100 km/h.
At 200 metres, the Jazz e:HEV is doing 107 km/h against 114 km/h for the 208 PureTech 130 EAT8. The gap is 0.41 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the Jazz e:HEV crosses the line in 17.34 s versus 17.37 s. The 0.03 s gap represents roughly 1 m of track
Past 400 metres, the situation changes. The Jazz e:HEV maxes out at 175 km/h while the 208 PureTech 130 EAT8 keeps accelerating towards 215 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.40 s.
Around 414 metres, both vehicles are level. This is the inversion point: the 208 PureTech 130 EAT8 overcomes its launch deficit thanks to a 40 km/h higher top speed.
At 1,000 metres, the 208 PureTech 130 EAT8 finishes in 30.56 s versus 31.87 s. The 1.31 s delta in favour of the 208 PureTech 130 EAT8 shows that top speed makes a clear difference.
Electronically capped at 175 km/h, the Jazz e:HEV 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.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (8.89 kg/hp vs 10.51 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 16.76 seconds. The 0.26 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
