Off the line, the Bmw M240i hits 100 km/h in 4.67 s versus 8.42 s for the Bmw 220d Active Tourer. At this point, the Bmw M240i leads by 3.76 s and sits roughly 24 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw M240i is doing 147 km/h against 115 km/h for the Bmw 220d Active Tourer. The gap is 2.23 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw M240i crosses the line in 12.78 s versus 16.26 s. The 3.49 s gap represents roughly 130 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw M240i continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 205 km/h versus 159 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw M240i finishes in 23.03 s versus 29.52 s, with a 6.48 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw M240i is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Bmw 220d Active Tourer at 220 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (4.49 kg/hp vs 9.60 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.60 seconds. The 3.76 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.
