Off the line, the A110 Pure 252 hits 100 km/h in 4.56 s versus 5.85 s for the Bmw 430i Gran Coupe. At this point, the A110 Pure 252 leads by 1.30 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the A110 Pure 252 is doing 151 km/h against 129 km/h for the Bmw 430i Gran Coupe. The gap is 0.76 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 14.07 s. The 1.46 s gap represents roughly 63 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 180 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the A110 Pure 252 finishes in 22.69 s versus 25.72 s, with a 3.04 s lead.
Electronically capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the Bmw 430i 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 6.25 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.22 seconds. The 1.30 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
