The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the F-TYPE R P575 hits 100 km/h in 3.74 s versus 4.17 s for the Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series Roadster. At this point, the F-TYPE R P575 leads by 0.43 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 is doing 165 km/h against 158 km/h for the Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series Roadster. The gap is 0.39 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 12.05 s. The 0.53 s gap represents roughly 29 m of track — two to three car lengths.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 230 km/h versus 224 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 finishes in 20.70 s versus 21.37 s, with a 0.67 s lead.

What the numbers don’t tell you

Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series Roadster is capped at 260 km/h, the F-TYPE R P575 at 300 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 (3.50 kg/hp vs 3.03 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.94 seconds. The 0.43 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
