The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 hits 100 km/h in 8.05 s versus 8.55 s for the ID.4 Pro. At this point, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 leads by 0.50 s and sits roughly 2 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 is doing 120 km/h against 116 km/h for the ID.4 Pro. The gap is 0.16 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 16.42 s. The 0.36 s gap represents roughly 14 m of track - two to three car lengths.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 163 km/h versus 157 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Scenic E-Tech Electric 220 finishes in 28.98 s versus 29.78 s, with a 0.80 s lead.

What the numbers don’t tell you

Electronically capped at 180 km/h, the ID.4 Pro 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 10.07 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.60 seconds. The 0.50 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
