Off the line, the A110 Pure 252 hits 100 km/h in 4.56 s versus 8.68 s for the Bmw 218d Gran Coupe. At this point, the A110 Pure 252 leads by 4.13 s and sits roughly 20 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the A110 Pure 252 is doing 151 km/h against 112 km/h for the Bmw 218d Gran Coupe. The gap is 2.30 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the A110 Pure 252 crosses the line in 12.61 s versus 16.40 s. The 3.78 s gap represents roughly 137 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the A110 Pure 252 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 209 km/h versus 155 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the A110 Pure 252 finishes in 22.69 s versus 29.93 s, with a 7.24 s lead.
Electronically capped at 222 km/h, the Bmw 218d Gran Coupe 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 (4.31 kg/hp vs 9.50 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 14.34 seconds. The 4.13 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
