Off the line, the e:Ny1 hits 100 km/h in 7.76 s versus 7.92 s for the Bmw X3 xDrive20d. The instant torque of 310 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. Despite the faster sprint time, the Bmw X3 xDrive20d is 17 m further along the track at this moment: stronger low-speed acceleration offsets a slower run beyond 100 km/h.
At 200 metres, the Bmw X3 xDrive20d is doing 114 km/h against 122 km/h for the e:Ny1. The gap is 0.44 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw X3 xDrive20d crosses the line in 15.76 s versus 15.82 s. The 0.05 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw X3 xDrive20d continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 160 km/h versus 156 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw X3 xDrive20d finishes in 29.22 s versus 29.40 s, with a 0.18 s lead.
The Bmw X3 xDrive20d features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the e:Ny1’s FWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the e:Ny1 is capped at 160 km/h, the Bmw X3 xDrive20d 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 13.46 seconds. The 0.16 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
