Off the line, the 740Le iPerformance hits 100 km/h in 5.58 s versus 5.63 s for the F-TYPE P300. The instant torque of 400 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. The 0.04 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the 740Le iPerformance is doing 132 km/h against 140 km/h for the F-TYPE P300. The gap is 0.19 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-TYPE P300 crosses the line in 13.69 s versus 13.77 s. The 0.08 s gap represents roughly 4 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the F-TYPE P300 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 197 km/h versus 186 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-TYPE P300 finishes in 24.35 s versus 25.05 s, with a 0.70 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (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 740Le iPerformance and the F-TYPE P300 are governed to 250 (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 8.68 seconds. The 0.04 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 740Le iPerformance G11 and F-TYPE P300 are neck and neck (5,58 s vs 5,63 s, no significant gap).
740Le iPerformance G11 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,58 seconds (calibrated simulation).
740Le iPerformance G11: 326 hp, ratio 5,95 kg/hp. F-TYPE P300: 300 hp, ratio 5,32 kg/hp.
740Le iPerformance G11: 250 km/h. F-TYPE P300: 250 km/h.
