Off the line, the Model X 100D hits 100 km/h in 4.64 s versus 4.99 s for the Bmw X2 M35i. The instant torque of 967 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. Despite the faster sprint time, the Bmw X2 M35i is 2 m further along the track at this moment: stronger low-speed acceleration offsets a slower run beyond 100 km/h.
At 200 metres, the Model X 100D is doing 148 km/h against 138 km/h for the Bmw X2 M35i. The gap is 0.21 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model X 100D crosses the line in 12.78 s versus 13.30 s. The 0.52 s gap represents roughly 24 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Model X 100D continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 205 km/h versus 190 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X 100D finishes in 23.03 s versus 24.37 s, with a 1.34 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 Model X 100D and the Bmw X2 M35i are governed to 249 (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.
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 7.77 seconds. The 0.36 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.
