Off the line, the Macan Turbo hits 100 km/h in 4.76 s versus 5.19 s for the Bmw XM 50e. Despite lacking instant torque, 400 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Macan Turbo leads by 0.44 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Macan Turbo is doing 142 km/h against 139 km/h for the Bmw XM 50e. The gap is 0.34 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Macan Turbo crosses the line in 12.99 s versus 13.44 s. The 0.45 s gap represents roughly 21 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Macan Turbo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 195 km/h versus 193 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Macan Turbo finishes in 23.72 s versus 24.30 s, with a 0.58 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) vs 254 km/h), preventing any comeback.
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 Turbo at 264 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 0.44 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Macan Turbo 95B.1 wins (4,75 s vs 5,19 s).
XM 50e G09 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,19 seconds (calibrated simulation).
