Off the line, the Bmw 330d Touring hits 100 km/h in 5.53 s versus 8.00 s for the S60 B4. At this point, the Bmw 330d Touring leads by 2.47 s and sits roughly 20 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 330d Touring is doing 131 km/h against 115 km/h for the S60 B4. The gap is 1.32 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 330d Touring crosses the line in 13.83 s versus 15.82 s. The 1.98 s gap represents roughly 77 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 330d Touring continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 182 km/h versus 161 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 330d Touring finishes in 25.34 s versus 28.87 s, with a 3.53 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw 330d Touring is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the S60 B4 at 180 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 (6.47 kg/hp vs 8.27 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.00 seconds. The 2.47 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.
