Off the line, the 308 PureTech 130 hits 100 km/h in 9.78 s versus 9.90 s for the Jazz e:HEV. Despite the faster sprint time, the Jazz e:HEV is 22 m further along the track at this moment: stronger low-speed acceleration offsets a slower run beyond 100 km/h.
At 200 metres, the Jazz e:HEV is doing 106 km/h against 113 km/h for the 308 PureTech 130. The gap is 0.70 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the Jazz e:HEV crosses the line in 17.08 s versus 17.34 s. The 0.26 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the situation changes. The Jazz e:HEV maxes out at 170 km/h while the 308 PureTech 130 keeps accelerating towards 217 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.24 s.
Around 507 metres, both vehicles are level. This is the inversion point: the 308 PureTech 130 overcomes its launch deficit thanks to a 47 km/h higher top speed.
At 1,000 metres, the 308 PureTech 130 finishes in 30.64 s versus 31.95 s. The 1.31 s delta in favour of the 308 PureTech 130 shows that top speed makes a clear difference.
Electronically capped at 170 km/h, the Jazz e:HEV 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 11.18 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 17.33 seconds. The 0.12 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 308 PureTech 130 wins (9,78 s vs 9,90 s).
308 PureTech 130 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 9,78 seconds (calibrated simulation).
