Off the line, the Bmw X5 M Competition hits 100 km/h in 3.83 s versus 5.06 s for the Macan GTS. At this point, the Bmw X5 M Competition leads by 1.23 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw X5 M Competition is doing 155 km/h against 138 km/h for the Macan GTS. The gap is 0.95 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw X5 M Competition crosses the line in 11.94 s versus 13.37 s. The 1.43 s gap represents roughly 66 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw X5 M Competition continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 215 km/h versus 191 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw X5 M Competition finishes in 21.80 s versus 24.40 s, with a 2.60 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) vs 256 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw X5 M Competition is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Macan GTS at 256 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 (3.74 kg/hp vs 5.26 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.89 seconds. The 1.23 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, X5 M Competition G05 wins (3,83 s vs 5,06 s).
