Off the line, the F-PACE P400e hits 100 km/h in 5.37 s versus 7.73 s for the Bmw 220d. The instant torque of 640 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the F-PACE P400e leads by 2.36 s and sits roughly 24 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the F-PACE P400e is doing 137 km/h against 121 km/h for the Bmw 220d. The gap is 1.55 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-PACE P400e crosses the line in 13.60 s versus 15.79 s. The 2.19 s gap represents roughly 88 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the F-PACE P400e continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 191 km/h versus 167 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-PACE P400e finishes in 24.60 s versus 28.41 s, with a 3.82 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (220 vs 224 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the F-PACE P400e is capped at 220 km/h, the Bmw 220d at 224 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 12.01 seconds. The 2.36 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, F-PACE P400e wins (5,37 s vs 7,73 s).
