Off the line, the Bmw X6 M50i hits 100 km/h in 4.26 s versus 5.37 s for the Macan S. At this point, the Bmw X6 M50i leads by 1.12 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw X6 M50i is doing 154 km/h against 135 km/h for the Macan S. The gap is 0.83 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw X6 M50i crosses the line in 12.29 s versus 13.65 s. The 1.36 s gap represents roughly 62 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw X6 M50i continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 214 km/h versus 188 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw X6 M50i finishes in 22.14 s versus 24.85 s, with a 2.71 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) vs 251 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Bmw X6 M50i and the Macan S 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 (4.23 kg/hp vs 5.49 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.35 seconds. The 1.12 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 5,37 s).
X6 M50i G06 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,25 seconds (calibrated simulation).
