The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the F-TYPE P300 hits 100 km/h in 5.63 s versus 7.75 s for the Bmw 420d Convertible. At this point, the F-TYPE P300 leads by 2.13 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the F-TYPE P300 is doing 140 km/h against 116 km/h for the Bmw 420d Convertible. The gap is 0.94 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.

At 400 metres standing start, the F-TYPE P300 crosses the line in 13.69 s versus 15.64 s. The 1.95 s gap represents roughly 75 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the F-TYPE P300 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 197 km/h versus 161 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-TYPE P300 finishes in 24.35 s versus 28.69 s, with a 4.34 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) vs 236 km/h), preventing any comeback.

What the numbers don’t tell you

Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the F-TYPE P300 is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the Bmw 420d Convertible at 236 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.32 kg/hp vs 9.34 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.82 seconds. The 2.13 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
