Off the line, the Aventador SVJ hits 100 km/h in 2.85 s versus 3.05 s for the Model X Performance. Despite lacking instant torque, 770 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Aventador SVJ leads by 0.20 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Aventador SVJ is doing 182 km/h against 168 km/h for the Model X Performance. The gap is 0.33 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the Aventador SVJ crosses the line in 10.30 s versus 10.92 s. The 0.62 s gap represents roughly 35 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Aventador SVJ continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 252 km/h versus 233 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Aventador SVJ finishes in 18.64 s versus 19.92 s, with a 1.28 s lead.
Electronically capped at 262 km/h, the Model X Performance never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
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 4.43 seconds. The 0.20 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
