Off the line, the 745e hits 100 km/h in 5.16 s versus 6.12 s for the i5 eDrive40. At this point, the 745e leads by 0.96 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 745e is doing 139 km/h against 135 km/h for the i5 eDrive40. The gap is 0.74 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 745e crosses the line in 13.37 s versus 14.29 s. The 0.92 s gap represents roughly 42 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 745e continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 196 km/h versus 186 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 745e finishes in 24.07 s versus 25.87 s, with a 1.79 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 745e is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the i5 eDrive40 at 193 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 plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.08 kg/hp vs 6.81 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.92 seconds. The 0.96 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 745e G11 wins (5,16 s vs 6,12 s).
745e G11 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,16 seconds (calibrated simulation).
