Off the line, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 hits 100 km/h in 8.12 s versus 10.04 s for the Jazz e:HEV. The instant torque of 245 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 leads by 1.92 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 is doing 117 km/h against 107 km/h for the Jazz e:HEV. The gap is 0.77 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 1.20 s gap represents roughly 43 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 150 km/h versus 146 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 finishes in 30.62 s versus 31.87 s, with a 1.25 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (175 km/h), the Jazz e:HEV never recovers its launch deficit.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 5 E-Tech Electric 150 is capped at 150 km/h, the Jazz e:HEV at 175 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 16.76 seconds. The 1.92 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 5 E-Tech Electric 150 wins (8,12 s vs 10,04 s).
5 E-Tech Electric 150 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 8,12 seconds (calibrated simulation).
