Off the line, the EV6 AWD Long Range hits 100 km/h in 5.16 s versus 5.24 s for the Taycan with Performance Battery Plus (PB). The 0.08 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the EV6 AWD Long Range is doing 135 km/h against 148 km/h for the Taycan with Performance Battery Plus (PB). The gap is 0.01 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Taycan with Performance Battery Plus (PB) crosses the line in 13.07 s versus 13.61 s. The 0.53 s gap represents roughly 24 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Taycan with Performance Battery Plus (PB) continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 217 km/h versus 183 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Taycan with Performance Battery Plus (PB) finishes in 22.91 s versus 25.54 s, with a 2.63 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Taycan with Performance Battery Plus (PB) is capped at 230 km/h, the EV6 AWD Long Range at 185 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit - it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (4.59 kg/hp vs 6.72 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.14 seconds. The 0.08 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Taycan with Performance Battery Plus (PB) J1.1 and EV6 AWD Long Range are neck and neck (5,16 s vs 5,24 s, no significant gap).
