Off the line, the Model S Long Range hits 100 km/h in 3.86 s versus 3.90 s for the Bmw i5 M60 xDrive Touring. The 0.04 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the Model S Long Range is doing 164 km/h against 150 km/h for the Bmw i5 M60 xDrive Touring. The gap is 0.16 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model S Long Range crosses the line in 11.60 s versus 12.16 s. The 0.56 s gap represents roughly 28 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Model S Long Range continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 231 km/h versus 207 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model S Long Range finishes in 20.76 s versus 22.30 s, with a 1.53 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model S Long Range is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the Bmw i5 M60 xDrive Touring at 230 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 (3.31 kg/hp vs 4.55 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.98 seconds. The 0.04 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.
