Off the line, the M2 hits 100 km/h in 4.12 s versus 4.22 s for the P7. Despite lacking instant torque, 460 hp of power compensates. The 0.10 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the M2 is doing 155 km/h against 147 km/h for the P7. The gap is 0.15 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the M2 crosses the line in 12.08 s versus 12.54 s. The 0.46 s gap represents roughly 22 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the M2 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 215 km/h versus 170 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the M2 finishes in 21.80 s versus 25.24 s, with a 3.44 s lead.
The P7 features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the M2’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 M2 is capped at 285 km/h, the P7 at 170 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.
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 6.49 seconds. The 0.10 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
