Off the line, the Model S Performance hits 100 km/h in 2.53 s versus 6.00 s for the Seal 313 2WD. At this point, the Model S Performance leads by 3.47 s and sits roughly 22 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model S Performance is doing 175 km/h against 135 km/h for the Seal 313 2WD. The gap is 2.80 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model S Performance crosses the line in 10.31 s versus 14.21 s. The 3.89 s gap represents roughly 167 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model S Performance continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 244 km/h versus 180 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model S Performance finishes in 19.02 s versus 26.31 s, with a 7.29 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model S Performance is capped at 262 km/h, the Seal 313 2WD at 180 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 (2.89 kg/hp vs 6.35 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.80 seconds. The 3.47 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.
