Off the line, the A110 GT 300 hits 100 km/h in 3.92 s versus 3.94 s for the M4 Competition Coupe. The 0.02 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the M4 Competition Coupe is doing 163 km/h against 157 km/h for the A110 GT 300. The gap is 0.08 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the M4 Competition Coupe crosses the line in 11.70 s versus 11.96 s. The 0.27 s gap represents roughly 14 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the M4 Competition Coupe continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 229 km/h versus 215 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the M4 Competition Coupe finishes in 20.93 s versus 21.76 s, with a 0.83 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (272 km/h), the A110 GT 300 never recovers its launch deficit.
Electronically capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the M4 Competition Coupe never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.38 kg/hp vs 3.65 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.79 seconds. The 0.02 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, M4 Competition Coupe G82 and A110 GT 300 are neck and neck (3,92 s vs 3,94 s, no significant gap).
M4 Competition Coupe G82 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,94 seconds (calibrated simulation).
M4 Competition Coupe G82: 510 hp, ratio 3,38 kg/hp. A110 GT 300: 305 hp, ratio 3,65 kg/hp.
M4 Competition Coupe G82: 250 km/h. A110 GT 300: 272 km/h.
