Off the line, the Bmw 745Le xDrive hits 100 km/h in 5.05 s versus 6.58 s for the S90 B5 AWD. The instant torque of 600 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the Bmw 745Le xDrive leads by 1.54 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 745Le xDrive is doing 139 km/h against 125 km/h for the S90 B5 AWD. The gap is 0.96 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 745Le xDrive crosses the line in 13.29 s versus 14.75 s. The 1.47 s gap represents roughly 62 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 745Le xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 195 km/h versus 176 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 745Le xDrive finishes in 24.03 s versus 27.11 s, with a 3.08 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw 745Le xDrive is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the S90 B5 AWD at 180 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.37 seconds. The 1.54 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
