Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Nissan Leaf 52kWh is the quicker car,
covering it in 16.15 s at
81.3 mph against the Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115’s
17.04 s — a margin of
0.90 s. To 60 mph the Nissan Leaf 52kWh takes
7.66 s and the Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115
9.47 s.
Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass,
rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures.

Each car is trimmed to its own published figures —
2/2 for the Nissan Leaf 52kWh,
2/2 for the Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115 —
so a heavier car can still be the quicker one if that is what it tests.
Is the Nissan Leaf 52kWh or the Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115 faster?
The Nissan Leaf 52kWh. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 16.15 s to the Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115's 17.04 s, a margin of 0.90 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.66 s against 9.47 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 Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115 0-60 time?
The Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115 reaches 60 mph in 9.47 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 17.04 s at 80.9 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Nissan Leaf 52kWh trips the lights at 81.3 mph and the Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115 at 80.9 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 2 of 2 for the Peugeot 2008 1.6 e-HDi 115. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
