Off the line, the i5 M60 xDrive hits 100 km/h in 3.74 s versus 5.16 s for the EV6 AWD Long Range. At this point, the i5 M60 xDrive leads by 1.42 s and sits roughly 13 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the i5 M60 xDrive is doing 152 km/h against 135 km/h for the EV6 AWD Long Range. The gap is 1.05 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the i5 M60 xDrive crosses the line in 12.00 s versus 13.61 s. The 1.61 s gap represents roughly 71 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the i5 M60 xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 209 km/h versus 183 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the i5 M60 xDrive finishes in 22.08 s versus 25.54 s, with a 3.46 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the i5 M60 xDrive is capped at 230 km/h, the EV6 AWD Long Range at 185 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 electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (4.46 kg/hp vs 6.72 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.14 seconds. The 1.42 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, i5 M60 xDrive G60 wins (3,74 s vs 5,16 s).
i5 M60 xDrive G60 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,74 seconds (calibrated simulation).
