Off the line, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive hits 100 km/h in 4.63 s versus 5.03 s for the Model X 90D. Despite lacking instant torque, 400 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive leads by 0.40 s and sits roughly 9 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive is doing 145 km/h against 147 km/h for the Model X 90D. The gap is 0.29 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 13.07 s. The 0.23 s gap represents roughly 12 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows.
At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive finishes in 23.18 s versus 23.32 s, with just 0.14 s to spare. The Model X 90D fails to fully close the launch gap.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Model X 90D and the Bmw 750Ld xDrive are governed to 249 (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.
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 7.09 seconds. The 0.40 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
