Off the line, the 760i xDrive hits 100 km/h in 4.28 s versus 8.36 s for the 9 E-Tense 250. Despite lacking instant torque, 544 hp of power compensates. At this point, the 760i xDrive leads by 4.08 s and sits roughly 31 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 760i xDrive is doing 152 km/h against 121 km/h for the 9 E-Tense 250. The gap is 2.84 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 760i xDrive crosses the line in 12.30 s versus 16.22 s. The 3.91 s gap represents roughly 154 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 760i xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 216 km/h versus 170 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 760i xDrive finishes in 22.04 s versus 28.57 s, with a 6.53 s lead.
Electronically capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the 760i xDrive never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
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 12.32 seconds. The 4.08 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 760i xDrive G11 wins (4,28 s vs 8,36 s).
760i xDrive G11 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,28 seconds (calibrated simulation).
760i xDrive G11: 544 hp, ratio 4,17 kg/hp. 9 E-Tense 250: 253 hp, ratio 7,51 kg/hp.
760i xDrive G11: 250 km/h. 9 E-Tense 250: 235 km/h.
