Off the line, the Model Y Juniper RWD hits 100 km/h in 6.04 s versus 6.82 s for the Q6 SUV e-tron. At this point, the Model Y Juniper RWD leads by 0.78 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model Y Juniper RWD is doing 135 km/h against 128 km/h for the Q6 SUV e-tron. The gap is 0.51 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model Y Juniper RWD crosses the line in 14.24 s versus 15.00 s. The 0.76 s gap represents roughly 33 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model Y Juniper RWD continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 185 km/h versus 174 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model Y Juniper RWD finishes in 25.58 s versus 27.06 s, with a 1.48 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (210 vs 209 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Q6 SUV e-tron and the Model Y Juniper RWD are governed to 210 km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (7.28 kg/hp vs 6.20 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.26 seconds. The 0.78 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
