Off the line, the 220d xDrive Gran Coupe hits 100 km/h in 7.43 s versus 7.55 s for the 320d Touring. At this point, the 220d xDrive Gran Coupe leads by 0.12 s and sits roughly 10 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 220d xDrive Gran Coupe is doing 118 km/h against 121 km/h for the 320d Touring. The gap is 0.32 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the 220d xDrive Gran Coupe crosses the line in 15.43 s versus 15.61 s. The 0.18 s gap represents roughly 7 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the situation changes. Past 400 metres, both rivals hit the same electronic ceiling at 229 km/h. Neither can claw back ground through top speed - the outcome hinges on the acceleration curve between 100 and 229 km/h.
At 1,000 metres, the 320d Touring finishes in 28.17 s versus 28.31 s. The 0.14 s delta shows an extremely tight race.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 220d xDrive Gran Coupe is capped at 234 km/h, the 320d Touring at 229 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 (8.24 kg/hp vs 8.24 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.14 seconds. The 0.12 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 220d xDrive Gran Coupe F44 wins (7,43 s vs 7,55 s).
220d xDrive Gran Coupe F44 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 7,43 seconds (calibrated simulation).
