Off the line, the Model Y Long Range RWD hits 100 km/h in 5.37 s versus 6.82 s for the Q6 SUV e-tron. At this point, the Model Y Long Range RWD leads by 1.45 s and sits roughly 22 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model Y Long Range RWD is doing 131 km/h against 128 km/h for the Q6 SUV e-tron. The gap is 1.05 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model Y Long Range RWD crosses the line in 13.90 s versus 15.00 s. The 1.10 s gap represents roughly 47 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows. The Q6 SUV e-tron maxes out at 210 km/h while the Model Y Long Range RWD keeps accelerating towards 216 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 1.07 s.
At 1,000 metres, the Model Y Long Range RWD finishes in 26.20 s versus 27.06 s, with just 0.86 s to spare. The Q6 SUV e-tron fails to fully close the launch gap.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Q6 SUV e-tron is capped at 210 km/h, the Model Y Long Range RWD at 217 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 electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (7.28 kg/hp vs 6.84 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.26 seconds. The 1.45 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
