Off the line, the i7 M70 xDrive hits 100 km/h in 3.65 s versus 5.16 s for the EV6 AWD Long Range. At this point, the i7 M70 xDrive leads by 1.52 s and sits roughly 13 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the i7 M70 xDrive is doing 155 km/h against 135 km/h for the EV6 AWD Long Range. The gap is 1.14 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the i7 M70 xDrive crosses the line in 11.83 s versus 13.61 s. The 1.78 s gap represents roughly 79 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the i7 M70 xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 214 km/h versus 183 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the i7 M70 xDrive finishes in 21.61 s versus 25.54 s, with a 3.94 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the i7 M70 xDrive is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) 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 (4.24 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 1.52 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, i7 M70 xDrive G70 wins (3,65 s vs 5,16 s).
i7 M70 xDrive G70 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,65 seconds (calibrated simulation).
