Off the line, the A110 GT 300 hits 100 km/h in 3.92 s versus 6.83 s for the Bmw 320d. At this point, the A110 GT 300 leads by 2.92 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the A110 GT 300 is doing 157 km/h against 120 km/h for the Bmw 320d. The gap is 1.72 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the A110 GT 300 crosses the line in 11.96 s versus 14.95 s. The 2.99 s gap represents roughly 117 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the A110 GT 300 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 215 km/h versus 166 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the A110 GT 300 finishes in 21.76 s versus 27.60 s, with a 5.84 s lead.
Electronically capped at 240 km/h, the Bmw 320d 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.65 kg/hp vs 8.11 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.30 seconds. The 2.92 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
