Off the line, the X4 xDrive30d hits 100 km/h in 5.74 s versus 5.83 s for the G 450 d. The 0.09 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the G 450 d is doing 128 km/h against 130 km/h for the X4 xDrive30d. The gap is 0.04 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the X4 xDrive30d crosses the line in 14.07 s versus 14.11 s. The 0.04 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track
Past 400 metres, the X4 xDrive30d continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 179 km/h versus 174 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the X4 xDrive30d finishes in 25.82 s versus 26.22 s, with a 0.41 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the G 450 d is capped at 210 km/h, the X4 xDrive30d at 245 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.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (6.96 kg/hp vs 6.75 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.41 seconds. The 0.09 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, G 450 d W463 and X4 xDrive30d G02 are neck and neck (5,74 s vs 5,83 s, no significant gap).
G 450 d W463 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 5,83 seconds (calibrated simulation).
G 450 d W463: 367 hp, ratio 6,96 kg/hp. X4 xDrive30d G02: 286 hp, ratio 6,75 kg/hp.
G 450 d W463: 210 km/h. X4 xDrive30d G02: 245 km/h.
