Off the line, the Model X 100D hits 100 km/h in 4.64 s versus 9.16 s for the Q3 SUV. The instant torque of 967 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the Model X 100D leads by 4.53 s and sits roughly 25 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model X 100D is doing 148 km/h against 111 km/h for the Q3 SUV. The gap is 2.59 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model X 100D crosses the line in 12.78 s versus 16.93 s. The 4.15 s gap represents roughly 145 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model X 100D continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 205 km/h versus 151 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X 100D finishes in 23.03 s versus 30.84 s, with a 7.82 s lead.
The Model X 100D features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the Q3 SUV’s FWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model X 100D is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Q3 SUV at 209 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 16.01 seconds. The 4.53 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
