Off the line, the Model X 100D hits 100 km/h in 4.64 s versus 10.39 s for the Bmw 216d Gran Coupe. The instant torque of 967 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the Model X 100D leads by 5.76 s and sits roughly 30 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model X 100D is doing 148 km/h against 107 km/h for the Bmw 216d Gran Coupe. The gap is 3.19 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model X 100D crosses the line in 12.78 s versus 17.61 s. The 4.83 s gap represents roughly 165 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model X 100D continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 205 km/h versus 148 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X 100D finishes in 23.03 s versus 31.80 s, with a 8.78 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model X 100D is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Bmw 216d Gran Coupe 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.
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 16.97 seconds. The 5.76 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.
