Questions

Is the Nissan Leaf 52kWh or the Peugeot e-208 51 kWh 158 faster?
The Peugeot e-208 51 kWh 158. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.87 s to the Nissan Leaf 52kWh's 16.15 s, a margin of 0.28 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.21 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 Peugeot e-208 51 kWh 158 0-60 time?
The Peugeot e-208 51 kWh 158 reaches 60 mph in 7.21 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.87 s at 82.7 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Nissan Leaf 52kWh trips the lights at 81.3 mph and the Peugeot e-208 51 kWh 158 at 82.7 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 e-208 51 kWh 158. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
