Off the line, the Bmw M4 hits 100 km/h in 4.19 s versus 4.43 s for the Bmw M2 Competition. At this point, the Bmw M4 leads by 0.23 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw M4 is doing 155 km/h against 157 km/h for the Bmw M2 Competition. The gap is 0.12 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw M4 crosses the line in 12.23 s versus 12.30 s. The 0.07 s gap represents roughly 4 m of track — barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw M4 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 219 km/h versus 218 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw M4 finishes in 21.86 s versus 21.96 s, with a 0.11 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 Bmw M4 and the Bmw M2 Competition 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.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.54 kg/hp vs 3.77 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.20 seconds. The 0.23 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.
