The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the e:Ny1 hits 100 km/h in 7.76 s versus 8.05 s for the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220. At this point, the e:Ny1 leads by 0.29 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the e:Ny1 is doing 122 km/h against 120 km/h for the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220. The gap is 0.16 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.

At 400 metres standing start, the e:Ny1 crosses the line in 15.82 s versus 16.06 s. The 0.24 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track - barely a car length.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the situation changes. The e:Ny1 maxes out at 160 km/h while the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 keeps accelerating towards 233 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.30 s.

Around 831 metres, both vehicles are level. This is the inversion point: the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 overcomes its launch deficit thanks to a 73 km/h higher top speed.

At 1,000 metres, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 finishes in 28.98 s versus 29.40 s. The 0.42 s delta shows an extremely tight race.

What the numbers don’t tell you

Electronically capped at 160 km/h, the e:Ny1 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 8.34 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.36 seconds. The 0.29 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
