Off the line, the Bmw M8 Competition Gran Coupe hits 100 km/h in 3.19 s versus 4.22 s for the P7. Despite lacking instant torque, 625 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Bmw M8 Competition Gran Coupe leads by 1.02 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw M8 Competition Gran Coupe is doing 166 km/h against 147 km/h for the P7. The gap is 0.90 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw M8 Competition Gran Coupe crosses the line in 11.09 s versus 12.54 s. The 1.45 s gap represents roughly 69 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw M8 Competition Gran Coupe continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 229 km/h versus 170 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw M8 Competition Gran Coupe finishes in 20.32 s versus 25.24 s, with a 4.93 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw M8 Competition Gran Coupe is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the P7 at 170 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.49 seconds. The 1.02 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
