Off the line, the DS7 E-Tense 4x4 300 hits 100 km/h in 5.98 s versus 6.04 s for the Model Y Juniper RWD. The 0.06 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the DS7 E-Tense 4x4 300 is doing 127 km/h against 135 km/h for the Model Y Juniper RWD. The gap is 0.27 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model Y Juniper RWD crosses the line in 14.24 s versus 14.27 s. The 0.03 s gap represents roughly 1 m of track
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 26.41 s, with a 0.83 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (230 km/h), the DS7 E-Tense 4x4 300 never recovers its launch deficit.
Electronically capped at 209 km/h, the Model Y Juniper RWD never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (6.23 kg/hp vs 6.20 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.63 seconds. The 0.06 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, DS7 E-Tense 4x4 300 and Model Y Juniper RWD are neck and neck (5,98 s vs 6,04 s, no significant gap).
DS7 E-Tense 4x4 300 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,98 seconds (calibrated simulation).
