Off the line, the Bmw 118d xDrive hits 100 km/h in 8.62 s versus 10.18 s for the A1 allstreet 30 TFSI S tronic 85 kW. At this point, the Bmw 118d xDrive leads by 1.56 s and sits roughly 30 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 118d xDrive is doing 112 km/h against 110 km/h for the A1 allstreet 30 TFSI S tronic 85 kW. The gap is 1.21 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 118d xDrive crosses the line in 16.28 s versus 17.61 s. The 1.32 s gap represents roughly 49 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 118d xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 155 km/h versus 151 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 118d xDrive finishes in 29.87 s versus 31.55 s, with a 1.68 s lead.
The Bmw 118d xDrive features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the A1 allstreet 30 TFSI S tronic 85 kW’s FWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Electronically capped at 210 km/h, the Bmw 118d xDrive 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 (9.80 kg/hp vs 10.13 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 16.08 seconds. The 1.56 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.
