Off the line, the Bmw 750i xDrive hits 100 km/h in 4.03 s versus 4.67 s for the Bmw M240i. At this point, the Bmw 750i xDrive leads by 0.64 s and sits roughly 7 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 750i xDrive is doing 158 km/h against 147 km/h for the Bmw M240i. The gap is 0.55 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 750i xDrive crosses the line in 11.92 s versus 12.78 s. The 0.85 s gap represents roughly 43 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 750i xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 223 km/h versus 205 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 750i xDrive finishes in 21.35 s versus 23.03 s, with a 1.68 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) vs 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Bmw 750i xDrive and the Bmw M240i are governed to 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.72 kg/hp vs 4.49 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.84 seconds. The 0.64 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 750i xDrive G11 wins (4,03 s vs 4,67 s).
750i xDrive G11 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,03 seconds (calibrated simulation).
