Off the line, the i7 xDrive60 hits 100 km/h in 4.66 s versus 5.73 s for the Born VZ. At this point, the i7 xDrive60 leads by 1.08 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the i7 xDrive60 is doing 145 km/h against 138 km/h for the Born VZ. The gap is 0.80 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the i7 xDrive60 crosses the line in 12.86 s versus 13.96 s. The 1.10 s gap represents roughly 49 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the i7 xDrive60 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 203 km/h versus 160 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the i7 xDrive60 finishes in 23.17 s versus 27.45 s, with a 4.28 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the i7 xDrive60 is capped at 240 km/h, the Born VZ at 160 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 (4.85 kg/hp vs 5.68 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.30 seconds. The 1.08 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, i7 xDrive60 G70 wins (4,66 s vs 5,73 s).
i7 xDrive60 G70 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,66 seconds (calibrated simulation).
