Off the line, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 hits 100 km/h in 4.66 s versus 6.31 s for the P7i. At this point, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 leads by 1.65 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 is doing 145 km/h against 129 km/h for the P7i. The gap is 1.11 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 crosses the line in 12.86 s versus 14.56 s. The 1.70 s gap represents roughly 73 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 203 km/h versus 178 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw i7 xDrive60 finishes in 23.17 s versus 26.38 s, with a 3.21 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw i7 xDrive60 is capped at 240 km/h, the P7i 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 7.18 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.78 seconds. The 1.65 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
