Off the line, the Bmw 750Li xDrive hits 100 km/h in 4.05 s versus 8.23 s for the XC40 B4. At this point, the Bmw 750Li xDrive leads by 4.19 s and sits roughly 22 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 750Li xDrive is doing 162 km/h against 115 km/h for the XC40 B4. The gap is 2.65 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 750Li xDrive crosses the line in 11.80 s versus 16.10 s. The 4.30 s gap represents roughly 158 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 750Li xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 229 km/h versus 158 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 750Li xDrive finishes in 21.02 s versus 29.39 s, with a 8.36 s lead.
The Bmw 750Li xDrive features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the XC40 B4’s FWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw 750Li xDrive is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the XC40 B4 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.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.81 kg/hp vs 8.17 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs auto).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.40 seconds. The 4.19 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.
