Off the line, the Macan GTS hits 100 km/h in 4.49 s versus 5.19 s for the Bmw XM 50e. Despite lacking instant torque, 360 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Macan GTS leads by 0.70 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Macan GTS is doing 147 km/h against 139 km/h for the Bmw XM 50e. The gap is 0.54 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Macan GTS crosses the line in 12.61 s versus 13.44 s. The 0.83 s gap represents roughly 39 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Macan GTS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 206 km/h versus 193 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Macan GTS finishes in 22.79 s versus 24.30 s, with a 1.50 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw XM 50e is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the Macan GTS at 272 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 7.89 seconds. The 0.70 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.
