Off the line, the G6 hits 100 km/h in 3.80 s versus 4.69 s for the iX xDrive50. At this point, the G6 leads by 0.88 s and sits roughly 9 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the G6 is doing 152 km/h against 144 km/h for the iX xDrive50. The gap is 0.67 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the G6 crosses the line in 12.03 s versus 12.93 s. The 0.90 s gap represents roughly 44 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the G6 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 200 km/h versus 200 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the G6 finishes in 22.89 s versus 23.92 s, with a 1.03 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (200 vs 200 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the iX xDrive50 and the G6 are governed to 200 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.
With two electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (4.94 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 7.07 seconds. The 0.88 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
