Off the line, the E-PACE P200 hits 100 km/h in 8.35 s versus 8.75 s for the Bmw 318d Touring. Despite the faster sprint time, the Bmw 318d Touring is 9 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 318d Touring is doing 110 km/h against 115 km/h for the E-PACE P200. The gap is 0.21 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the E-PACE P200 crosses the line in 16.19 s versus 16.26 s. The 0.07 s gap represents roughly 3 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the E-PACE P200 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 159 km/h versus 153 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the E-PACE P200 finishes in 29.41 s versus 30.02 s, with a 0.61 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (215 vs 217 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the E-PACE P200 and the Bmw 318d Touring are governed to 215 km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (8.74 kg/hp vs 10.50 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 14.87 seconds. The 0.40 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
