Off the line, the i7 M70 xDrive hits 100 km/h in 3.65 s versus 3.80 s for the G6. At this point, the i7 M70 xDrive leads by 0.16 s and sits roughly 2 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the i7 M70 xDrive is doing 155 km/h against 152 km/h for the G6. The gap is 0.13 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the i7 M70 xDrive crosses the line in 11.83 s versus 12.03 s. The 0.20 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the i7 M70 xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 214 km/h versus 200 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the i7 M70 xDrive finishes in 21.61 s versus 22.89 s, with a 1.28 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 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 (4.24 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 0.16 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 3,80 s).
i7 M70 xDrive G70 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,65 seconds (calibrated simulation).
