Off the line, the e:Ny1 hits 100 km/h in 7.76 s versus 7.80 s for the X1 sDrive20d. The instant torque of 310 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. The 0.04 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the X1 sDrive20d is doing 119 km/h against 122 km/h for the e:Ny1. The gap is 0.12 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the X1 sDrive20d crosses the line in 15.77 s versus 15.82 s. The 0.05 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track
Past 400 metres, the X1 sDrive20d continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 166 km/h versus 160 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the X1 sDrive20d finishes in 28.46 s versus 29.40 s, with a 0.94 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the e:Ny1 is capped at 160 km/h, the X1 sDrive20d at 222 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 12.14 seconds. The 0.04 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, e:Ny1 and X1 sDrive20d F48 are neck and neck (7,76 s vs 7,80 s, no significant gap).
e:Ny1 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 7,76 seconds (calibrated simulation).
