Off the line, the 7 E-Tense 4x4 300 hits 100 km/h in 5.98 s versus 6.84 s for the X1 xDrive25e. At this point, the 7 E-Tense 4x4 300 leads by 0.86 s and sits roughly 9 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 7 E-Tense 4x4 300 is doing 127 km/h against 121 km/h for the X1 xDrive25e. The gap is 0.49 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 7 E-Tense 4x4 300 crosses the line in 14.27 s versus 14.99 s. The 0.72 s gap represents roughly 30 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 7 E-Tense 4x4 300 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 174 km/h versus 167 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 7 E-Tense 4x4 300 finishes in 26.41 s versus 27.59 s, with a 1.18 s lead.
Electronically capped at 193 km/h, the X1 xDrive25e never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (6.23 kg/hp vs 7.93 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.19 seconds. The 0.86 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
