Off the line, the Bmw 218d hits 100 km/h in 8.35 s versus 8.92 s for the 600e 156. Despite lacking instant torque, 150 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Bmw 218d leads by 0.57 s and sits roughly 15 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 218d is doing 114 km/h against 115 km/h for the 600e 156. The gap is 0.55 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 218d crosses the line in 16.17 s versus 16.73 s. The 0.56 s gap represents roughly 21 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 218d continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 158 km/h versus 150 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 218d finishes in 29.45 s versus 31.23 s, with a 1.77 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 600e 156 is capped at 150 km/h, the Bmw 218d at 213 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 14.15 seconds. The 0.57 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
