Off the line, the Taycan hits 100 km/h in 5.13 s versus 6.12 s for the Bmw i5 eDrive40 Touring. At this point, the Taycan leads by 1.00 s and sits roughly 9 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Taycan is doing 148 km/h against 134 km/h for the Bmw i5 eDrive40 Touring. The gap is 0.75 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Taycan crosses the line in 13.02 s versus 14.33 s. The 1.31 s gap represents roughly 58 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Taycan continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 215 km/h versus 184 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Taycan finishes in 22.91 s versus 25.96 s, with a 3.05 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Taycan is capped at 230 km/h, the Bmw i5 eDrive40 Touring at 193 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 electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.15 kg/hp vs 6.96 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.07 seconds. The 1.00 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
