Off the line, the MG4 Long Range RWD hits 100 km/h in 6.73 s versus 10.04 s for the Jazz e:HEV. The instant torque of 350 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the MG4 Long Range RWD leads by 3.31 s and sits roughly 18 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the MG4 Long Range RWD is doing 129 km/h against 107 km/h for the Jazz e:HEV. The gap is 1.44 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the MG4 Long Range RWD crosses the line in 14.92 s versus 17.34 s. The 2.42 s gap represents roughly 86 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the MG4 Long Range RWD continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 176 km/h versus 146 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the MG4 Long Range RWD finishes in 27.23 s versus 31.87 s, with a 4.64 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (180 vs 175 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the MG4 Long Range RWD is capped at 180 km/h, the Jazz e:HEV at 175 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit - it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
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 16.76 seconds. The 3.31 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
