Off the line, the X6 M50i hits 100 km/h in 4.26 s versus 6.94 s for the X7 xDrive30d. At this point, the X6 M50i leads by 2.69 s and sits roughly 9 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the X6 M50i is doing 154 km/h against 119 km/h for the X7 xDrive30d. The gap is 1.51 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the X6 M50i crosses the line in 12.29 s versus 15.04 s. The 2.75 s gap represents roughly 107 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the X6 M50i continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 214 km/h versus 164 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the X6 M50i finishes in 22.14 s versus 27.89 s, with a 5.76 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the X6 M50i is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the X7 xDrive30d at 227 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 (4.23 kg/hp vs 8.94 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.64 seconds. The 2.69 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, X6 M50i G06 wins (4,25 s vs 6,94 s).
X6 M50i G06 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,25 seconds (calibrated simulation).
