Off the line, the Model X Long Range hits 100 km/h in 4.11 s versus 6.14 s for the Bmw X3 xDrive30e. At this point, the Model X Long Range leads by 2.03 s and sits roughly 9 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model X Long Range is doing 160 km/h against 127 km/h for the Bmw X3 xDrive30e. The gap is 1.40 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model X Long Range crosses the line in 11.92 s versus 14.38 s. The 2.46 s gap represents roughly 103 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 224 km/h versus 176 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X Long Range finishes in 21.31 s versus 26.28 s, with a 4.97 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 X3 xDrive30e at 210 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 (3.51 kg/hp vs 6.82 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.78 seconds. The 2.03 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.
