Off the line, the Model X Performance hits 100 km/h in 3.05 s versus 7.46 s for the 320e. At this point, the Model X Performance leads by 4.41 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model X Performance is doing 168 km/h against 115 km/h for the 320e. The gap is 2.75 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model X Performance crosses the line in 10.92 s versus 15.43 s. The 4.52 s gap represents roughly 165 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model X Performance continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 233 km/h versus 158 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X Performance finishes in 19.92 s versus 28.77 s, with a 8.85 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model X Performance is capped at 262 km/h, the 320e at 220 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 plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.16 kg/hp vs 8.65 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.74 seconds. The 4.41 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Model X Performance wins (3,05 s vs 7,46 s).
Model X Performance goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,05 seconds (calibrated simulation).
