Bmw 750Ld xDrive vs EQS 450: chronicle of a drag race at 250 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive hits 100 km/h in 4.63 s versus 6.30 s for the EQS 450. Despite lacking instant torque, 400 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive leads by 1.67 s and sits roughly 15 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive is doing 145 km/h against 128 km/h for the EQS 450. The gap is 1.12 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive crosses the line in 12.84 s versus 14.56 s. The 1.72 s gap represents roughly 73 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 203 km/h versus 177 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive finishes in 23.18 s versus 26.37 s, with a 3.19 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw 750Ld xDrive is capped at 250 km/h, the EQS 450 at 210 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 9.86 seconds. The 1.67 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Bmw 750Ld xDrive has a clear edge over the Mercedes EQS 450 to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
