Off the line, the Model Y Juniper Long Range AWD hits 100 km/h in 4.55 s versus 5.05 s for the Model Y Long Range AWD. At this point, the Model Y Juniper Long Range AWD leads by 0.50 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model Y Juniper Long Range AWD is doing 145 km/h against 143 km/h for the Model Y Long Range AWD. The gap is 0.38 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model Y Juniper Long Range AWD crosses the line in 12.83 s versus 13.27 s. The 0.44 s gap represents roughly 21 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Model Y Juniper Long Range AWD continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 199 km/h versus 197 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model Y Juniper Long Range AWD finishes in 23.43 s versus 23.97 s, with a 0.54 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (217 vs 217 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Model Y Long Range AWD and the Model Y Juniper Long Range AWD are governed to 217 km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.22 kg/hp vs 5.05 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.41 seconds. The 0.50 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
