Off the line, the F-PACE P400e hits 100 km/h in 5.37 s versus 5.49 s for the Bmw 740e iPerformance. Despite the faster sprint time, the Bmw 740e iPerformance is 4 m further along the track at this moment: stronger low-speed acceleration offsets a slower run beyond 100 km/h.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 740e iPerformance is doing 133 km/h against 137 km/h for the F-PACE P400e. The gap is 0.03 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-PACE P400e crosses the line in 13.60 s versus 13.68 s. The 0.08 s gap represents roughly 4 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the F-PACE P400e continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 191 km/h versus 187 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-PACE P400e finishes in 24.60 s versus 24.90 s, with a 0.30 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h), the Bmw 740e iPerformance never recovers its launch deficit.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the F-PACE P400e is capped at 220 km/h, the Bmw 740e iPerformance at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) 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 5.83 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.52 seconds. The 0.12 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
