Off the line, the Macan GTS hits 100 km/h in 5.06 s versus 7.78 s for the Bmw X1 xDrive20i. At this point, the Macan GTS leads by 2.72 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Macan GTS is doing 138 km/h against 116 km/h for the Bmw X1 xDrive20i. The gap is 1.41 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Macan GTS crosses the line in 13.37 s versus 15.67 s. The 2.30 s gap represents roughly 89 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Macan GTS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 191 km/h versus 161 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Macan GTS finishes in 24.40 s versus 28.72 s, with a 4.32 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Macan GTS is capped at 256 km/h, the Bmw X1 xDrive20i at 223 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 (5.26 kg/hp vs 8.18 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.69 seconds. The 2.72 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Macan GTS 95B.1 wins (5,06 s vs 7,78 s).
