Off the line, the i5 M60 xDrive hits 100 km/h in 3.74 s versus 3.80 s for the G6. The 0.06 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the i5 M60 xDrive is doing 152 km/h against 152 km/h for the G6. The gap is 0.05 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the i5 M60 xDrive crosses the line in 12.00 s versus 12.03 s. The 0.03 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track
Past 400 metres, the i5 M60 xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 209 km/h versus 200 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the i5 M60 xDrive finishes in 22.08 s versus 22.89 s, with a 0.81 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the i5 M60 xDrive is capped at 230 km/h, the G6 at 200 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 4.41 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.75 seconds. The 0.06 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 and G6 are neck and neck (3,74 s vs 3,80 s, no significant gap).
i5 M60 xDrive G60 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,74 seconds (calibrated simulation).
i5 M60 xDrive G60: 517 hp, ratio 4,46 kg/hp. G6: 480 hp, ratio 4,41 kg/hp.
i5 M60 xDrive G60: 230 km/h. G6: 200 km/h.
