Off the line, the F-PACE SVR hits 100 km/h in 4.35 s versus 5.16 s for the Panamera S. At this point, the F-PACE SVR leads by 0.81 s and sits roughly 7 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the F-PACE SVR is doing 154 km/h against 140 km/h for the Panamera S. The gap is 0.63 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-PACE SVR crosses the line in 12.30 s versus 13.31 s. The 1.01 s gap represents roughly 49 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the F-PACE SVR continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 216 km/h versus 197 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-PACE SVR finishes in 22.05 s versus 23.98 s, with a 1.93 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (285 vs 277 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the F-PACE SVR and the Panamera S are governed to 285 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.68 kg/hp vs 4.43 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.71 seconds. The 0.81 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
