Off the line, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 hits 100 km/h in 8.12 s versus 10.17 s for the Bmw 116d. The instant torque of 245 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 leads by 2.05 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 is doing 117 km/h against 106 km/h for the Bmw 116d. The gap is 0.78 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 17.39 s. The 1.26 s gap represents roughly 45 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows. The 5 E-Tech Electric 150 maxes out at 150 km/h while the Bmw 116d keeps accelerating towards 200 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap is down to 1.53 s from 1.26 s at 400 metres.
At 1,000 metres, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 finishes in 30.62 s versus 31.69 s, with just 1.07 s to spare. The Bmw 116d fails to fully close the launch gap.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 is capped at 150 km/h, the Bmw 116d at 200 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.
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 16.95 seconds. The 2.05 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
