Off the line, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive hits 100 km/h in 4.63 s versus 5.13 s for the Taycan. Despite lacking instant torque, 400 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive leads by 0.50 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive is doing 145 km/h against 148 km/h for the Taycan. The gap is 0.34 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive crosses the line in 12.84 s versus 13.02 s. The 0.18 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track — barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the situation changes. The Taycan maxes out at 230 km/h while the Bmw 750Ld xDrive keeps accelerating towards 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.02 s.
Around 587 metres, both vehicles are level. This is the inversion point: the Taycan overcomes its launch deficit thanks to a 20 km/h higher top speed.
At 1,000 metres, the Taycan finishes in 22.91 s versus 23.18 s. The 0.27 s delta shows an extremely tight race.
The Bmw 750Ld xDrive features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the Taycan’s RWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Taycan is capped at 230 km/h, the Bmw 750Ld xDrive at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.04 seconds. The 0.50 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.
