Off the line, the EV6 RWD Standard Range hits 100 km/h in 8.63 s versus 10.95 s for the 2008 PureTech 110. The instant torque of 350 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the EV6 RWD Standard Range leads by 2.32 s and sits roughly 29 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the EV6 RWD Standard Range is doing 114 km/h against 106 km/h for the 2008 PureTech 110. The gap is 1.31 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the EV6 RWD Standard Range crosses the line in 16.45 s versus 18.14 s. The 1.69 s gap represents roughly 60 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the EV6 RWD Standard Range continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 153 km/h versus 147 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the EV6 RWD Standard Range finishes in 30.22 s versus 32.49 s, with a 2.27 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (185 vs 191 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Electronically capped at 185 km/h, the EV6 RWD Standard 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 17.74 seconds. The 2.32 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, EV6 RWD Standard Range wins (8,63 s vs 10,95 s).
