Off the line, the F-TYPE R P575 hits 100 km/h in 3.74 s versus 4.30 s for the Model X Long Range. Despite lacking instant torque, 575 hp of power compensates. At this point, the F-TYPE R P575 leads by 0.56 s and sits roughly 7 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 is doing 165 km/h against 158 km/h for the Model X Long Range. The gap is 0.45 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-TYPE R P575 crosses the line in 11.52 s versus 12.14 s. The 0.62 s gap represents roughly 33 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 230 km/h versus 221 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 finishes in 20.70 s versus 21.65 s, with a 0.95 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model X Long Range is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the F-TYPE R P575 at 300 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 5.92 seconds. The 0.56 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, F-TYPE R P575 wins (3,74 s vs 4,29 s).
