Off the line, the Model Y Long Range AWD hits 100 km/h in 5.05 s versus 6.80 s for the 225xe iPerformance. At this point, the Model Y Long Range AWD leads by 1.75 s and sits roughly 15 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model Y Long Range AWD is doing 143 km/h against 126 km/h for the 225xe iPerformance. The gap is 1.14 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model Y Long Range AWD crosses the line in 13.27 s versus 14.96 s. The 1.69 s gap represents roughly 72 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model Y Long Range AWD continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 197 km/h versus 176 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model Y Long Range AWD finishes in 23.97 s versus 26.93 s, with a 2.96 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model Y Long Range AWD is capped at 217 km/h, the 225xe iPerformance at 202 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 (5.22 kg/hp vs 7.17 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.41 seconds. The 1.75 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Model Y Long Range AWD wins (5,05 s vs 6,80 s).
Model Y Long Range AWD goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,05 seconds (calibrated simulation).
