Off the line, the RAV4 PHEV hits 100 km/h in 6.08 s versus 8.55 s for the ID.4 Pro. At this point, the RAV4 PHEV leads by 2.47 s and sits roughly 24 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the RAV4 PHEV is doing 129 km/h against 116 km/h for the ID.4 Pro. The gap is 1.45 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the RAV4 PHEV crosses the line in 14.33 s versus 16.42 s. The 2.09 s gap represents roughly 80 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the RAV4 PHEV continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 181 km/h versus 157 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the RAV4 PHEV finishes in 25.91 s versus 29.78 s, with a 3.87 s lead.
The RAV4 PHEV features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the ID.4 Pro’s RWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Electronically capped at 180 km/h, the ID.4 Pro 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.
With two plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (6.50 kg/hp vs 10.07 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.60 seconds. The 2.47 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, RAV4 PHEV wins (6,08 s vs 8,55 s).
