Off the line, the Bmw 330e hits 100 km/h in 5.92 s versus 6.80 s for the Bmw 225xe iPerformance. At this point, the Bmw 330e leads by 0.88 s and sits roughly 17 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 330e is doing 128 km/h against 126 km/h for the Bmw 225xe iPerformance. The gap is 0.70 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 330e crosses the line in 14.23 s versus 14.96 s. The 0.73 s gap represents roughly 31 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 330e continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 175 km/h versus 176 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 330e finishes in 26.25 s versus 26.93 s, with a 0.68 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw 330e is capped at 230 km/h, the Bmw 225xe iPerformance at 202 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 plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (6.90 kg/hp vs 7.17 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.41 seconds. The 0.88 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.
