Nissan Leaf 52kWh vs Kia EV6 GT

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Kia EV6 GT is the quicker car, covering it in 11.68 s at 116.2 mph against the Nissan Leaf 52kWh’s 16.15 s — a margin of 4.46 s. To 60 mph the Kia EV6 GT takes 3.18 s and the Nissan Leaf 52kWh 7.66 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the Nissan Leaf 52kWh or the Kia EV6 GT faster?
The Kia EV6 GT. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 11.68 s to the Nissan Leaf 52kWh's 16.15 s, a margin of 4.46 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 3.18 s against 7.66 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Nissan Leaf 52kWh 0-60 time?
The Nissan Leaf 52kWh reaches 60 mph in 7.66 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.15 s at 81.3 mph.
What is the Kia EV6 GT 0-60 time?
The Kia EV6 GT reaches 60 mph in 3.18 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 11.68 s at 116.2 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Nissan Leaf 52kWh trips the lights at 81.3 mph and the Kia EV6 GT at 116.2 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 2 of 2 for the Nissan Leaf 52kWh and 10 of 10 for the Kia EV6 GT. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
