Off the line, the Model X 100D hits 100 km/h in 4.64 s versus 5.81 s for the X4 xDrive30d. The instant torque of 967 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the Model X 100D leads by 1.17 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model X 100D is doing 148 km/h against 129 km/h for the X4 xDrive30d. The gap is 0.71 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 14.13 s. The 1.35 s gap represents roughly 58 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 178 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X 100D finishes in 23.03 s versus 25.95 s, with a 2.93 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) vs 245 km/h), preventing any comeback.
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 X4 xDrive30d at 245 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 9.32 seconds. The 1.17 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Model X 100D wins (4,63 s vs 5,81 s).
Model X 100D goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,63 seconds (calibrated simulation).
