The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 hits 100 km/h in 8.12 s versus 9.78 s for the 308 PureTech 130. The instant torque of 245 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 leads by 1.66 s and sits roughly 25 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 is doing 117 km/h against 113 km/h for the 308 PureTech 130. The gap is 1.10 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.

At 400 metres standing start, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 crosses the line in 16.13 s versus 17.34 s. The 1.21 s gap represents roughly 46 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the gap narrows. The 5 E-Tech Electric 150 maxes out at 150 km/h while the 308 PureTech 130 keeps accelerating towards 217 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap is down to 1.12 s from 1.21 s at 400 metres.

At 1,000 metres, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 finishes in 30.62 s versus 30.64 s, with just 0.02 s to spare. The 308 PureTech 130 fails to fully close the launch gap.

What the numbers don’t tell you

Electronically capped at 150 km/h, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 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 14.90 seconds. The 1.66 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
