The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the Aventador LP700 hits 100 km/h in 2.88 s versus 4.83 s for the M440i. At this point, the Aventador LP700 leads by 1.95 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the Aventador LP700 is doing 183 km/h against 146 km/h for the M440i. The gap is 1.78 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.

At 400 metres standing start, the Aventador LP700 crosses the line in 10.29 s versus 12.93 s. The 2.64 s gap represents roughly 126 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the Aventador LP700 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 254 km/h versus 205 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Aventador LP700 finishes in 18.54 s versus 23.15 s, with a 4.61 s lead.

What the numbers don’t tell you

Electronically capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the M440i 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (2.25 kg/hp vs 4.53 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.06 seconds. The 1.95 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
