Off the line, the F-TYPE R P575 hits 100 km/h in 3.74 s versus 4.19 s for the M4. At this point, the F-TYPE R P575 leads by 0.45 s and sits roughly 5 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 is doing 165 km/h against 155 km/h for the M4. The gap is 0.46 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-TYPE R P575 crosses the line in 11.52 s versus 12.23 s. The 0.71 s gap represents roughly 38 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 230 km/h versus 219 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 finishes in 20.70 s versus 21.86 s, with a 1.16 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the F-TYPE R P575 is capped at 300 km/h, the M4 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.03 kg/hp vs 3.54 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.20 seconds. The 0.45 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, F-TYPE R P575 wins (3,74 s vs 4,19 s).
F-TYPE R P575 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,74 seconds (calibrated simulation).
