Off the line, the 730d hits 100 km/h in 6.16 s versus 8.32 s for the V 300 d 4MATIC (long). At this point, the 730d leads by 2.16 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 730d is doing 131 km/h against 114 km/h for the V 300 d 4MATIC (long). The gap is 0.84 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 730d crosses the line in 14.36 s versus 16.03 s. The 1.66 s gap represents roughly 62 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 730d continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 183 km/h versus 156 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 730d finishes in 25.82 s versus 29.55 s, with a 3.73 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 730d is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the V 300 d 4MATIC (long) at 217 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 (6.68 kg/hp vs 9.44 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Unknown).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 14.08 seconds. The 2.16 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 730d G11 wins (6,16 s vs 8,32 s).
730d G11 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 6,16 seconds (calibrated simulation).
730d G11: 265 hp, ratio 6,68 kg/hp. V 300 d 4MATIC (long): 245 hp, ratio 9,44 kg/hp.
730d G11: 250 km/h. V 300 d 4MATIC (long): 210 km/h.
