Off the line, the V 300 d 4MATIC (long) hits 100 km/h in 8.32 s versus 10.38 s for the Bmw 116d. At this point, the V 300 d 4MATIC (long) leads by 2.06 s and sits roughly 31 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the V 300 d 4MATIC (long) is doing 114 km/h against 107 km/h for the Bmw 116d. The gap is 1.32 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the V 300 d 4MATIC (long) crosses the line in 16.03 s versus 17.62 s. The 1.60 s gap represents roughly 58 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the V 300 d 4MATIC (long) continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 156 km/h versus 148 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the V 300 d 4MATIC (long) finishes in 29.55 s versus 31.80 s, with a 2.25 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (210 vs 200 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the V 300 d 4MATIC (long) is capped at 217 km/h, the Bmw 116d at 200 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 (9.44 kg/hp vs 11.85 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 16.91 seconds. The 2.06 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.
