Off the line, the F-PACE P400e hits 100 km/h in 5.37 s versus 5.91 s for the 330e. At this point, the F-PACE P400e leads by 0.54 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the F-PACE P400e is doing 137 km/h against 134 km/h for the 330e. The gap is 0.40 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 14.09 s. The 0.49 s gap represents roughly 23 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the F-PACE P400e continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 191 km/h versus 188 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-PACE P400e finishes in 24.60 s versus 25.24 s, with a 0.64 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (220 vs 230 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 330e at 230 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.
With two plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.55 kg/hp vs 6.06 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.90 seconds. The 0.54 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 5,91 s).
F-PACE P400e goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,37 seconds (calibrated simulation).
