Off the line, the Bmw M440i hits 100 km/h in 4.83 s versus 4.90 s for the 911 Carrera 4. The 0.07 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 is doing 147 km/h against 146 km/h for the Bmw M440i. The gap is 0.01 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera 4 crosses the line in 12.85 s versus 12.93 s. The 0.07 s gap represents roughly 4 m of track — barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 209 km/h versus 205 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 finishes in 22.96 s versus 23.15 s, with a 0.19 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw M440i is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the 911 Carrera 4 at 285 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 (4.53 kg/hp vs 4.03 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.15 seconds. The 0.07 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.
