Off the line, the F-TYPE P300 hits 100 km/h in 5.63 s versus 11.64 s for the 216d Gran Tourer. At this point, the F-TYPE P300 leads by 6.02 s and sits roughly 27 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the F-TYPE P300 is doing 140 km/h against 101 km/h for the 216d Gran Tourer. The gap is 2.72 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-TYPE P300 crosses the line in 13.69 s versus 18.19 s. The 4.50 s gap represents roughly 147 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the F-TYPE P300 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 197 km/h versus 140 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-TYPE P300 finishes in 24.35 s versus 33.18 s, with a 8.83 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the F-TYPE P300 is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the 216d Gran Tourer at 192 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.32 kg/hp vs 12.80 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 19.69 seconds. The 6.02 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, F-TYPE P300 wins (5,63 s vs 11,64 s).
F-TYPE P300 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,63 seconds (calibrated simulation).
