Off the line, the Model Y Performance hits 100 km/h in 3.76 s versus 4.13 s for the Bmw X4 M Competition. The instant torque of 670 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the Model Y Performance leads by 0.37 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model Y Performance is doing 152 km/h against 151 km/h for the Bmw X4 M Competition. The gap is 0.20 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model Y Performance crosses the line in 12.01 s versus 12.22 s. The 0.20 s gap represents roughly 11 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Model Y Performance continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 209 km/h versus 207 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model Y Performance finishes in 22.06 s versus 22.35 s, with a 0.28 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 X4 M Competition and the Model Y Performance 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.
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 6.14 seconds. The 0.37 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.
