Off the line, the SQ7 SUV hits 100 km/h in 4.03 s versus 5.03 s for the Model X 90D. Despite lacking instant torque, 507 hp of power compensates. At this point, the SQ7 SUV leads by 1.01 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the SQ7 SUV is doing 154 km/h against 147 km/h for the Model X 90D. The gap is 0.77 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the SQ7 SUV crosses the line in 12.11 s versus 13.07 s. The 0.95 s gap represents roughly 47 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the SQ7 SUV continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 213 km/h versus 205 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the SQ7 SUV finishes in 21.97 s versus 23.32 s, with a 1.35 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (249 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) vs 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Model X 90D and the SQ7 SUV are governed to 249 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.09 seconds. The 1.01 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
