Off the line, the SQ7 SUV hits 100 km/h in 4.04 s versus 4.13 s for the Bmw X3 M Competition. The 0.09 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the SQ7 SUV is doing 154 km/h against 151 km/h for the Bmw X3 M Competition. The gap is 0.02 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the SQ7 SUV crosses the line in 12.11 s versus 12.22 s. The 0.12 s gap represents roughly 6 m of track — barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the SQ7 SUV continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 214 km/h versus 207 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the SQ7 SUV finishes in 21.94 s versus 22.37 s, with a 0.43 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 Bmw X3 M Competition and the SQ7 SUV are governed to 250 (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.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.91 kg/hp vs 4.34 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.15 seconds. The 0.09 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.
