Off the line, the iX M60 hits 100 km/h in 3.72 s versus 4.39 s for the Bmw X5 M50i. The instant torque of 1,100 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the iX M60 leads by 0.67 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the iX M60 is doing 151 km/h against 150 km/h for the Bmw X5 M50i. The gap is 0.52 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the iX M60 crosses the line in 11.94 s versus 12.48 s. The 0.54 s gap represents roughly 28 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the iX M60 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 212 km/h versus 208 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the iX M60 finishes in 21.84 s versus 22.56 s, with a 0.72 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) vs 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the iX M60 and the Bmw X5 M50i are governed to 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold — an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.43 seconds. The 0.67 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.
