Off the line, the Bmw 220d Active Tourer hits 100 km/h in 7.59 s versus 11.36 s for the Bmw 216d Gran Tourer. At this point, the Bmw 220d Active Tourer leads by 3.77 s and sits roughly 21 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 220d Active Tourer is doing 121 km/h against 102 km/h for the Bmw 216d Gran Tourer. The gap is 1.43 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 220d Active Tourer crosses the line in 15.67 s versus 18.06 s. The 2.39 s gap represents roughly 81 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 220d Active Tourer continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 166 km/h versus 141 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 220d Active Tourer finishes in 28.32 s versus 32.93 s, with a 4.61 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw 220d Active Tourer is capped at 224 km/h, the Bmw 216d Gran Tourer at 192 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 (7.82 kg/hp vs 12.76 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 19.19 seconds. The 3.77 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.
