Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

Demanding drivers: 10th of 48 in 0–100 km/h (3.8 s), 10th of 48 in Power-to-weight (275 hp/t). 10th of 48 in 0–100 km/h (3.8 s), 10th of 48 in Power-to-weight (275 hp/t).

Less suitable for

Frequent urban trips with stop-and-go. At 10,0 L/100 km on the combined cycle, consumption rises in the city without electric assistance. An HEV or PHEV would be more economical for this use profile.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is 0–100 km/h, the Porsche Panamera Turbo S Sport Turismo (1st with 3.0 s) takes the lead. If the priority is Top speed, the Porsche Panamera Turbo S Executive (1st with 315 km/h) takes the lead.

Acceleration: 3.8 s 0-100 (10th of 48 in 0–100 km/h)

In pure acceleration, the M850i xDrive ranks 10th of 48 in 0–100 km/h, 0.8 s off the reference Porsche Panamera Turbo S Sport Turismo (3.0 s).

Top speed: 250 km/h (35th of 48 in Top speed)

Top speed of 250 km/h. The segment reference reaches 315 km/h.

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Among the 48 limousines 2018–2022, the M850i xDrive ranks 10th of 48 in 0–100 km/h (3.8 s, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo S Sport Turismo), 35th of 48 in Top speed (250 km/h, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo S Executive), 10th of 48 in Power-to-weight (275 hp/t, behind the Bmw M8 Competition Coupe).

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
