Off the line, the G6 hits 100 km/h in 3.80 s versus 4.66 s for the i7 xDrive60. At this point, the G6 leads by 0.85 s and sits roughly 10 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the G6 is doing 152 km/h against 145 km/h for the i7 xDrive60. The gap is 0.65 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the G6 crosses the line in 12.03 s versus 12.86 s. The 0.83 s gap represents roughly 41 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows. The G6 maxes out at 200 km/h while the i7 xDrive60 keeps accelerating towards 240 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap is down to 0.91 s from 0.83 s at 400 metres.
At 1,000 metres, the G6 finishes in 22.89 s versus 23.17 s, with just 0.28 s to spare. The i7 xDrive60 fails to fully close the launch gap.
The G6 features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the i7 xDrive60’s RWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the i7 xDrive60 is capped at 240 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 (4.85 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 6.94 seconds. The 0.85 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, G6 wins (3,80 s vs 4,66 s).
i7 xDrive60 G70 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,66 seconds (calibrated simulation).
