Off the line, the M4 Competition Coupe hits 100 km/h in 4.17 s versus 4.63 s for the 750Ld xDrive. At this point, the M4 Competition Coupe leads by 0.46 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the M4 Competition Coupe is doing 154 km/h against 145 km/h for the 750Ld xDrive. The gap is 0.39 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the M4 Competition Coupe crosses the line in 12.15 s versus 12.84 s. The 0.69 s gap represents roughly 34 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the M4 Competition Coupe continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 216 km/h versus 203 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the M4 Competition Coupe finishes in 21.87 s versus 23.18 s, with a 1.30 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 M4 Competition Coupe and the 750Ld xDrive 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 (3.49 kg/hp vs 4.95 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.01 seconds. The 0.46 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.
