Off the line, the Wrangler 4xe hits 100 km/h in 6.28 s versus 7.58 s for the Compass 4xe. At this point, the Wrangler 4xe leads by 1.30 s and sits roughly 5 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Wrangler 4xe is doing 128 km/h against 116 km/h for the Compass 4xe. The gap is 0.51 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Wrangler 4xe crosses the line in 14.60 s versus 15.62 s. The 1.02 s gap represents roughly 40 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Wrangler 4xe continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 174 km/h versus 159 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Wrangler 4xe finishes in 27.06 s versus 28.87 s, with a 1.81 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (200 km/h), the Compass 4xe never recovers its launch deficit.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Wrangler 4xe is capped at 177 km/h, the Compass 4xe at 200 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 (6.37 kg/hp vs 9.56 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.66 seconds. The 1.30 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Wrangler 4xe wins (6,28 s vs 7,58 s).
Wrangler 4xe goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 6,28 seconds (calibrated simulation).
