Off the line, the RS e-tron GT hits 100 km/h in 3.34 s versus 6.25 s for the Bmw 730Ld. The instant torque of 830 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the RS e-tron GT leads by 2.91 s and sits roughly 19 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the RS e-tron GT is doing 167 km/h against 129 km/h for the Bmw 730Ld. The gap is 2.19 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the RS e-tron GT crosses the line in 11.17 s versus 14.46 s. The 3.29 s gap represents roughly 138 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the RS e-tron GT continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 233 km/h versus 181 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the RS e-tron GT finishes in 20.27 s versus 26.03 s, with a 5.76 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) vs 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the RS e-tron GT and the Bmw 730Ld are governed to 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.61 seconds. The 2.91 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.
