Off the line, the Bmw 630d Gran Turismo hits 100 km/h in 6.06 s versus 8.51 s for the Bmw 118d. At this point, the Bmw 630d Gran Turismo leads by 2.45 s and sits roughly 23 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 630d Gran Turismo is doing 127 km/h against 114 km/h for the Bmw 118d. The gap is 1.35 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 630d Gran Turismo crosses the line in 14.32 s versus 16.27 s. The 1.94 s gap represents roughly 74 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 630d Gran Turismo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 177 km/h versus 158 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 630d Gran Turismo finishes in 26.17 s versus 29.61 s, with a 3.45 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw 630d Gran Turismo is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Bmw 118d at 212 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 (6.89 kg/hp vs 9.30 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.72 seconds. The 2.45 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 630d Gran Turismo G32 wins (6,06 s vs 8,51 s).
630d Gran Turismo G32 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 6,06 seconds (calibrated simulation).
