Off the line, the Captur TCe 130 EDC hits 100 km/h in 9.74 s versus 10.12 s for the Captur E-Tech Hybrid 145. At this point, the Captur TCe 130 EDC leads by 0.38 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Captur TCe 130 EDC is doing 111 km/h against 111 km/h for the Captur E-Tech Hybrid 145. The gap is 0.25 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Captur TCe 130 EDC crosses the line in 17.32 s versus 17.57 s. The 0.25 s gap represents roughly 9 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows. The Captur E-Tech Hybrid 145 maxes out at 172 km/h while the Captur TCe 130 EDC keeps accelerating towards 188 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.21 s.
At 1,000 metres, the Captur TCe 130 EDC finishes in 31.21 s versus 31.27 s, with just 0.06 s to spare. The Captur E-Tech Hybrid 145 fails to fully close the launch gap.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Captur E-Tech Hybrid 145 is capped at 172 km/h, the Captur TCe 130 EDC at 188 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (9.76 kg/hp vs 9.57 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 15.65 seconds. The 0.38 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Captur TCe 130 EDC wins (9,74 s vs 10,12 s).
Captur E-Tech Hybrid 145 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 10,12 seconds (calibrated simulation).
Captur E-Tech Hybrid 145: 145 hp, ratio 9,76 kg/hp. Captur TCe 130 EDC: 131 hp, ratio 9,57 kg/hp.
Captur E-Tech Hybrid 145: 172 km/h. Captur TCe 130 EDC: 188 km/h.
