3008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 vs Leaf 24kWh AZE0: chronicle of a drag race at 206 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the 3008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 hits 100 km/h in 10.70 s versus 11.36 s for the Leaf 24kWh AZE0. Despite lacking instant torque, 131 hp of power compensates. The 0.66 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the 3008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 is doing 106 km/h against 102 km/h for the Leaf 24kWh AZE0. The gap is 0.01 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 3008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 crosses the line in 17.86 s versus 18.13 s. The 0.27 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track — barely a car length.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the 3008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 148 km/h versus 139 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 3008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 finishes in 32.11 s versus 33.56 s, with a 1.45 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 145 km/h, the Leaf 24kWh AZE0 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 19.75 seconds. The 0.66 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 EAT8 has a clear edge over the Nissan Leaf 24kWh AZE0 to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
