Off the line, the 630i Gran Turismo hits 100 km/h in 6.53 s versus 7.15 s for the 120d. At this point, the 630i Gran Turismo leads by 0.62 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 630i Gran Turismo is doing 125 km/h against 124 km/h for the 120d. The gap is 0.54 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 630i Gran Turismo crosses the line in 14.71 s versus 15.30 s. The 0.59 s gap represents roughly 25 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 630i Gran Turismo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 175 km/h versus 172 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 630i Gran Turismo finishes in 26.68 s versus 27.53 s, with a 0.85 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 630i Gran Turismo is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the 120d at 228 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 (6.92 kg/hp vs 7.45 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.99 seconds. The 0.62 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 630i Gran Turismo G32 wins (6,53 s vs 7,15 s).
630i Gran Turismo G32 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 6,53 seconds (calibrated simulation).
