Off the line, the Clio 6 E-Tech Full Hybrid 160 hits 100 km/h in 8.73 s versus 10.38 s for the Bmw 116d. At this point, the Clio 6 E-Tech Full Hybrid 160 leads by 1.65 s and sits roughly 18 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Clio 6 E-Tech Full Hybrid 160 is doing 114 km/h against 107 km/h for the Bmw 116d. The gap is 0.84 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Clio 6 E-Tech Full Hybrid 160 crosses the line in 16.39 s versus 17.61 s. The 1.22 s gap represents roughly 44 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Clio 6 E-Tech Full Hybrid 160 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 157 km/h versus 148 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Clio 6 E-Tech Full Hybrid 160 finishes in 29.70 s versus 31.81 s, with a 2.11 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (200 km/h), the Bmw 116d never recovers its launch deficit.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Clio 6 E-Tech Full Hybrid 160 is capped at 180 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.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (8.56 kg/hp vs 11.85 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 16.96 seconds. The 1.65 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
