Off the line, the Mustang Mach-E GT hits 100 km/h in 3.73 s versus 7.58 s for the Compass 4xe. At this point, the Mustang Mach-E GT leads by 3.85 s and sits roughly 20 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Mustang Mach-E GT is doing 152 km/h against 116 km/h for the Compass 4xe. The gap is 2.35 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Mustang Mach-E GT crosses the line in 11.99 s versus 15.62 s. The 3.63 s gap represents roughly 136 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Mustang Mach-E GT continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 200 km/h versus 159 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Mustang Mach-E GT finishes in 22.87 s versus 28.87 s, with a 6.00 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (200 vs 200 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Mustang Mach-E GT and the Compass 4xe are governed to 200 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.
With two plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (4.33 kg/hp vs 9.56 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.66 seconds. The 3.85 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Mustang Mach-E GT wins (3,73 s vs 7,58 s).
