Off the line, the G6 hits 100 km/h in 3.80 s versus 9.21 s for the Q3 Sportback. The instant torque of 660 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the G6 leads by 5.41 s and sits roughly 27 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the G6 is doing 152 km/h against 110 km/h for the Q3 Sportback. The gap is 3.10 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the G6 crosses the line in 12.03 s versus 16.68 s. The 4.65 s gap represents roughly 165 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the G6 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 200 km/h versus 155 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the G6 finishes in 22.89 s versus 30.26 s, with a 7.37 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (200 vs 207 km/h), preventing any comeback.
The G6 features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the Q3 Sportback’s FWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the G6 is capped at 200 km/h, the Q3 Sportback at 207 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 14.82 seconds. The 5.41 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
