Off the line, the 223d xDrive Active Tourer hits 100 km/h in 7.43 s versus 8.35 s for the E-PACE P200. At this point, the 223d xDrive Active Tourer leads by 0.92 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 223d xDrive Active Tourer is doing 121 km/h against 115 km/h for the E-PACE P200. The gap is 0.42 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 223d xDrive Active Tourer crosses the line in 15.43 s versus 16.19 s. The 0.75 s gap represents roughly 29 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 223d xDrive Active Tourer continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 171 km/h versus 159 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 223d xDrive Active Tourer finishes in 27.75 s versus 29.41 s, with a 1.66 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 223d xDrive Active Tourer is capped at 233 km/h, the E-PACE P200 at 215 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 (7.84 kg/hp vs 8.74 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.46 seconds. The 0.92 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 223d xDrive Active Tourer G42 wins (7,43 s vs 8,35 s).
223d xDrive Active Tourer G42 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 7,43 seconds (calibrated simulation).
