Off the line, the A 200 hits 100 km/h in 8.08 s versus 9.78 s for the 308 PureTech 130. At this point, the A 200 leads by 1.70 s and sits roughly 17 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the A 200 is doing 121 km/h against 113 km/h for the 308 PureTech 130. The gap is 0.90 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the A 200 crosses the line in 16.05 s versus 17.34 s. The 1.29 s gap represents roughly 49 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the A 200 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 170 km/h versus 158 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the A 200 finishes in 28.42 s versus 30.64 s, with a 2.21 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (225 vs 217 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Electronically capped at 225 km/h, the A 200 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 (8.44 kg/hp vs 9.31 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 14.90 seconds. The 1.70 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
