Off the line, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 hits 100 km/h in 4.66 s versus 5.05 s for the Model Y Long Range AWD. At this point, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 leads by 0.39 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 is doing 145 km/h against 143 km/h for the Model Y Long Range AWD. The gap is 0.31 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 crosses the line in 12.86 s versus 13.27 s. The 0.41 s gap represents roughly 20 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 203 km/h versus 197 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 finishes in 23.17 s versus 23.97 s, with a 0.80 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw i7 xDrive60 is capped at 240 km/h, the Model Y Long Range AWD at 217 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 5.22 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.41 seconds. The 0.39 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 5,05 s).
i7 xDrive60 G70 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,66 seconds (calibrated simulation).
