Off the line, the Model S Long Range hits 100 km/h in 3.86 s versus 4.22 s for the P7. The 0.36 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the Model S Long Range is doing 164 km/h against 147 km/h for the P7. The gap is 0.40 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model S Long Range crosses the line in 11.60 s versus 12.54 s. The 0.94 s gap represents roughly 44 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model S Long Range continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 231 km/h versus 170 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model S Long Range finishes in 20.76 s versus 25.24 s, with a 4.48 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model S Long Range is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the P7 at 170 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 electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.31 kg/hp vs 4.81 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.49 seconds. The 0.36 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
