Off the line, the Bmw X2 sDrive18d hits 100 km/h in 9.20 s versus 9.74 s for the Captur TCe 130 EDC. At this point, the Bmw X2 sDrive18d leads by 0.54 s and sits roughly 19 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw X2 sDrive18d is doing 110 km/h against 111 km/h for the Captur TCe 130 EDC. The gap is 0.67 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw X2 sDrive18d crosses the line in 16.72 s versus 17.32 s. The 0.60 s gap represents roughly 23 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw X2 sDrive18d continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 152 km/h versus 152 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw X2 sDrive18d finishes in 30.58 s versus 31.21 s, with a 0.63 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw X2 sDrive18d is capped at 207 km/h, the Captur TCe 130 EDC at 188 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 (10.00 kg/hp vs 9.57 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 15.47 seconds. The 0.54 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
