Off the line, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 hits 100 km/h in 8.05 s versus 9.77 s for the ë-C4 FWD. At this point, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 leads by 1.72 s and sits roughly 12 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 is doing 120 km/h against 110 km/h for the ë-C4 FWD. The gap is 0.74 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 crosses the line in 16.06 s versus 17.29 s. The 1.23 s gap represents roughly 45 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 163 km/h versus 149 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 finishes in 28.98 s versus 31.39 s, with a 2.41 s lead.
Electronically capped at 150 km/h, the ë-C4 FWD never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (9.12 kg/hp vs 11.25 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 15.91 seconds. The 1.72 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 wins (8,05 s vs 9,77 s).
Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 8,05 seconds (calibrated simulation).
