Off the line, the 308 GTi 270 hits 100 km/h in 6.06 s versus 6.27 s for the 128ti. At this point, the 308 GTi 270 leads by 0.21 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 308 GTi 270 is doing 140 km/h against 132 km/h for the 128ti. The gap is 0.24 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 308 GTi 270 crosses the line in 13.98 s versus 14.44 s. The 0.46 s gap represents roughly 21 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 308 GTi 270 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 196 km/h versus 184 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 308 GTi 270 finishes in 24.71 s versus 25.86 s, with a 1.15 s lead.
Electronically capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the 128ti 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 (4.63 kg/hp vs 5.45 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.33 seconds. The 0.21 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
