Off the line, the Model Y Long Range RWD hits 100 km/h in 5.37 s versus 6.58 s for the P7. At this point, the Model Y Long Range RWD leads by 1.21 s and sits roughly 17 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model Y Long Range RWD is doing 131 km/h against 127 km/h for the P7. The gap is 0.83 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 14.81 s. The 0.91 s gap represents roughly 39 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model Y Long Range RWD continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 172 km/h versus 170 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model Y Long Range RWD finishes in 26.20 s versus 27.64 s, with a 1.44 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model Y Long Range RWD is capped at 217 km/h, the P7 at 170 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 (6.84 kg/hp vs 7.59 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.18 seconds. The 1.21 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
