Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo vs Model X Long Range: chronicle of a drag race at 250 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo hits 100 km/h in 3.24 s versus 4.11 s for the Model X Long Range. At this point, the Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo leads by 0.87 s and sits roughly 12 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo is doing 162 km/h against 160 km/h for the Model X Long Range. The gap is 0.62 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo crosses the line in 11.26 s versus 11.92 s. The 0.66 s gap represents roughly 36 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 227 km/h versus 224 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo finishes in 20.55 s versus 21.31 s, with a 0.76 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 vs 250 km/h), preventing any comeback.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo and the Model X Long Range are governed to 250 km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold — an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.52 kg/hp vs 3.51 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.65 seconds. The 0.87 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Porsche Taycan Turbo Cross Turismo has a clear edge over the Tesla Model X Long Range to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
