Off the line, the P7 hits 100 km/h in 4.22 s versus 6.30 s for the EQS 450. At this point, the P7 leads by 2.09 s and sits roughly 18 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the P7 is doing 147 km/h against 128 km/h for the EQS 450. The gap is 1.42 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the P7 crosses the line in 12.54 s versus 14.56 s. The 2.02 s gap represents roughly 85 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows. The P7 maxes out at 170 km/h while the EQS 450 keeps accelerating towards 210 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 2.07 s.
At 1,000 metres, the P7 finishes in 25.24 s versus 26.37 s, with just 1.13 s to spare. The EQS 450 fails to fully close the launch gap.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the P7 is capped at 170 km/h, the EQS 450 at 210 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 (4.81 kg/hp vs 7.45 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.86 seconds. The 2.09 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.
Over 0–100 km/h, P7 wins (4,21 s vs 6,30 s).
P7 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,21 seconds (calibrated simulation).
