Off the line, the A6 Avant hits 100 km/h in 7.00 s versus 7.48 s for the Bmw 320i Touring. At this point, the A6 Avant leads by 0.48 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the A6 Avant is doing 117 km/h against 117 km/h for the Bmw 320i Touring. The gap is 0.41 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the A6 Avant crosses the line in 15.02 s versus 15.44 s. The 0.42 s gap represents roughly 17 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the A6 Avant continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 161 km/h versus 162 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the A6 Avant finishes in 27.98 s versus 28.40 s, with a 0.42 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (238 vs 230 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the A6 Avant is capped at 238 km/h, the Bmw 320i Touring at 230 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit - it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (9.80 kg/hp vs 8.53 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.30 seconds. The 0.48 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
