Off the line, the 308 PureTech 130 hits 100 km/h in 9.78 s versus 10.59 s for the Civic. At this point, the 308 PureTech 130 leads by 0.81 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 308 PureTech 130 is doing 113 km/h against 109 km/h for the Civic. The gap is 0.30 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 308 PureTech 130 crosses the line in 17.34 s versus 17.88 s. The 0.54 s gap represents roughly 20 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 308 PureTech 130 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 158 km/h versus 149 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 308 PureTech 130 finishes in 30.64 s versus 32.04 s, with a 1.41 s lead.
Electronically capped at 185 km/h, the Civic 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 (9.31 kg/hp vs 9.46 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 16.94 seconds. The 0.81 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
