Off the line, the SQ2 hits 100 km/h in 4.94 s versus 5.16 s for the EV6 AWD Long Range. Despite lacking instant torque, 300 hp of power compensates. At this point, the SQ2 leads by 0.22 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the SQ2 is doing 133 km/h against 135 km/h for the EV6 AWD Long Range. The gap is 0.09 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the SQ2 crosses the line in 13.47 s versus 13.61 s. The 0.14 s gap represents roughly 6 m of track — barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the SQ2 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 190 km/h versus 183 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the SQ2 finishes in 24.55 s versus 25.54 s, with a 0.99 s lead.
Electronically capped at 185 km/h, the EV6 AWD Long Range 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 8.36 seconds. The 0.22 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
