Race simulation at real speed
CONFIDENCE 94%The Model S reaches 100 km/h first (2.53 s vs 2.85 s), but the Aventador SVJ is ahead at every metre of the race. Explanation: the Aventador SVJ accelerates harder at low speed and builds a distance gap before either car hits 100 km/h.
Why this result?
The Tesla Model S Performance is faster at 0-100 km/h, but the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ compensates at high speed thanks to higher peak power or top speed. At 400 m, Lamborghini Aventador SVJ leads by 0.02 s.

Model S Performance vs Aventador SVJ: chronicle of a drag race at 340 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Model S Performance hits 100 km/h in 2.53 s versus 2.85 s for the Aventador SVJ. The instant torque of 1,139 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the Model S Performance leads by 0.32 s and sits roughly 5 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Model S Performance is doing 175 km/h against 182 km/h for the Aventador SVJ. The gap is 0.13 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Aventador SVJ crosses the line in 10.30 s versus 10.31 s. The 0.02 s gap represents roughly 1 m of track
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Aventador SVJ continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 252 km/h versus 244 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Aventador SVJ finishes in 18.64 s versus 19.02 s, with a 0.38 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 262 km/h, the Model S Performance never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor — it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 3.99 seconds. The 0.32 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Tesla Model S Performance is slightly faster than the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ to 100 km/h. The edge holds on standing starts but may narrow at higher speeds depending on aerodynamic load.
