Off the line, the Compass 4xe hits 100 km/h in 7.58 s versus 8.35 s for the CR-V. The instant torque of 400 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the Compass 4xe leads by 0.77 s and sits roughly 19 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Compass 4xe is doing 116 km/h against 118 km/h for the CR-V. The gap is 0.70 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Compass 4xe crosses the line in 15.62 s versus 16.25 s. The 0.63 s gap represents roughly 25 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows. The Compass 4xe maxes out at 200 km/h while the CR-V keeps accelerating towards 205 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.57 s.
At 1,000 metres, the Compass 4xe finishes in 28.87 s versus 29.27 s, with just 0.40 s to spare. The CR-V fails to fully close the launch gap.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the CR-V is capped at 205 km/h, the Compass 4xe at 200 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.
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 12.97 seconds. The 0.77 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
