Off the line, the 530d Touring hits 100 km/h in 5.74 s versus 6.06 s for the 630d Gran Turismo. At this point, the 530d Touring leads by 0.32 s and sits roughly 5 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 530d Touring is doing 129 km/h against 127 km/h for the 630d Gran Turismo. The gap is 0.21 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 530d Touring crosses the line in 14.04 s versus 14.32 s. The 0.28 s gap represents roughly 12 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 530d Touring continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 179 km/h versus 177 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 530d Touring finishes in 25.76 s versus 26.17 s, with a 0.41 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) vs 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the 530d Touring and the 630d Gran Turismo are governed to 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (6.60 kg/hp vs 6.89 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.67 seconds. The 0.32 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.
