Off the line, the Model Y Performance hits 100 km/h in 3.76 s versus 4.37 s for the SQ6 SUV e-tron. At this point, the Model Y Performance leads by 0.60 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model Y Performance is doing 152 km/h against 144 km/h for the SQ6 SUV e-tron. The gap is 0.47 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model Y Performance crosses the line in 12.01 s versus 12.70 s. The 0.68 s gap represents roughly 33 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model Y Performance continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 209 km/h versus 198 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model Y Performance finishes in 22.06 s versus 23.29 s, with a 1.22 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the SQ6 SUV e-tron is capped at 230 km/h, the Model Y Performance at 249 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) 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.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (4.76 kg/hp vs 4.39 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.73 seconds. The 0.60 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
