408 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 vs Compass 4xe: chronicle of a drag race at 233 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the 408 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 hits 100 km/h in 7.58 s versus 7.58 s for the Compass 4xe. The 0.00 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Compass 4xe is doing 116 km/h against 122 km/h for the 408 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8. The gap is 0.30 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the 408 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 crosses the line in 15.61 s versus 15.62 s. The 0.01 s gap represents roughly 0 m of track
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the 408 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 170 km/h versus 159 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 408 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 finishes in 27.96 s versus 28.87 s, with a 0.91 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 200 km/h, the Compass 4xe 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 (7.66 kg/hp vs 9.56 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.66 seconds. The 0.00 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Peugeot 408 Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 and Jeep Compass 4xe are virtually tied to 100 km/h. The gap is under a tenth of a second — only the physics engine can settle it step by step.
