Off the line, the Bmw X7 xDrive50i hits 100 km/h in 5.33 s versus 5.37 s for the Model Y Long Range RWD. Despite lacking instant torque, 462 hp of power compensates. The 0.04 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the Bmw X7 xDrive50i is doing 137 km/h against 131 km/h for the Model Y Long Range RWD. The gap is 0.03 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw X7 xDrive50i crosses the line in 13.57 s versus 13.90 s. The 0.33 s gap represents roughly 14 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw X7 xDrive50i continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 190 km/h versus 172 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw X7 xDrive50i finishes in 24.64 s versus 26.20 s, with a 1.56 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw X7 xDrive50i is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the Model Y Long Range RWD at 217 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.
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 8.80 seconds. The 0.04 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
