Off the line, the Maybach S 680 hits 100 km/h in 4.53 s versus 11.23 s for the Bmw 216d. At this point, the Maybach S 680 leads by 6.70 s and sits roughly 35 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Maybach S 680 is doing 153 km/h against 105 km/h for the Bmw 216d. The gap is 3.84 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Maybach S 680 crosses the line in 12.41 s versus 18.21 s. The 5.80 s gap represents roughly 192 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Maybach S 680 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 220 km/h versus 146 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Maybach S 680 finishes in 21.93 s versus 32.65 s, with a 10.72 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Maybach S 680 is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Bmw 216d at 195 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 (3.86 kg/hp vs 12.24 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 18.17 seconds. The 6.70 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Maybach S 680 wins (4,53 s vs 11,23 s).
Maybach S 680 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,53 seconds (calibrated simulation).
