Off the line, the Model X 100D hits 100 km/h in 4.64 s versus 8.62 s for the Q4 40 e-tron 150 kW. At this point, the Model X 100D leads by 3.98 s and sits roughly 26 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model X 100D is doing 148 km/h against 115 km/h for the Q4 40 e-tron 150 kW. The gap is 2.47 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 16.48 s. The 3.70 s gap represents roughly 138 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 157 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X 100D finishes in 23.03 s versus 30.31 s, with a 7.28 s lead.
The Model X 100D features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the Q4 40 e-tron 150 kW’s RWD. 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 Q4 40 e-tron 150 kW at 160 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 (4.62 kg/hp vs 10.57 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Unknown).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.70 seconds. The 3.98 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
