Off the line, the Model S P100D hits 100 km/h in 2.85 s versus 4.64 s for the Model X 100D. At this point, the Model S P100D leads by 1.78 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model S P100D is doing 173 km/h against 148 km/h for the Model X 100D. The gap is 1.53 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model S P100D crosses the line in 10.63 s versus 12.78 s. The 2.15 s gap represents roughly 105 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model S P100D continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 240 km/h versus 205 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model S P100D finishes in 19.59 s versus 23.03 s, with a 3.44 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) vs 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Model S P100D and the Model X 100D are governed to 249 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) 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 (2.94 kg/hp vs 4.62 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.71 seconds. The 1.78 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.
