Off the line, the Model X Long Range hits 100 km/h in 4.30 s versus 7.46 s for the Bmw 320e. At this point, the Model X Long Range leads by 3.17 s and sits roughly 9 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model X Long Range is doing 158 km/h against 115 km/h for the Bmw 320e. The gap is 1.76 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model X Long Range crosses the line in 12.14 s versus 15.43 s. The 3.29 s gap represents roughly 123 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model X Long Range continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 221 km/h versus 158 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X Long Range finishes in 21.65 s versus 28.77 s, with a 7.12 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model X Long Range is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Bmw 320e at 220 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 plug-in hybrid powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.67 kg/hp vs 8.65 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.74 seconds. The 3.17 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
