Off the line, the 308 GTi 270 hits 100 km/h in 6.06 s versus 7.45 s for the Leon VZe. Despite lacking instant torque, 272 hp of power compensates. At this point, the 308 GTi 270 leads by 1.39 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 308 GTi 270 is doing 140 km/h against 126 km/h for the Leon VZe. The gap is 0.95 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 308 GTi 270 crosses the line in 13.98 s versus 15.41 s. The 1.43 s gap represents roughly 61 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 308 GTi 270 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 196 km/h versus 174 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 308 GTi 270 finishes in 24.71 s versus 27.49 s, with a 2.77 s lead.
Electronically capped at 225 km/h, the Leon VZe 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 10.94 seconds. The 1.39 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 308 GTi 270 wins (6,06 s vs 7,45 s).
308 GTi 270 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 6,06 seconds (calibrated simulation).
