Off the line, the ID.3 Pro hits 100 km/h in 7.35 s versus 7.48 s for the Megane E-Tech Electric. At this point, the ID.3 Pro leads by 0.13 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the ID.3 Pro is doing 121 km/h against 123 km/h for the Megane E-Tech Electric. The gap is 0.19 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the ID.3 Pro crosses the line in 15.50 s versus 15.59 s. The 0.09 s gap represents roughly 4 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows.
At 1,000 metres, the ID.3 Pro finishes in 29.13 s versus 29.16 s, with just 0.03 s to spare. The Megane E-Tech Electric fails to fully close the launch gap.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Megane E-Tech Electric and the ID.3 Pro are governed to 160 km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (8.11 kg/hp vs 8.82 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.71 seconds. The 0.13 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
