Off the line, the Model X P100D hits 100 km/h in 3.05 s versus 6.14 s for the X3 xDrive30e. At this point, the Model X P100D leads by 3.09 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Model X P100D is doing 167 km/h against 127 km/h for the X3 xDrive30e. The gap is 2.21 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model X P100D crosses the line in 10.97 s versus 14.38 s. The 3.41 s gap represents roughly 140 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Model X P100D continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 231 km/h versus 176 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Model X P100D finishes in 20.13 s versus 26.28 s, with a 6.15 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model X P100D is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the 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 (3.24 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 3.09 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Model X P100D wins (3,05 s vs 6,14 s).
Model X P100D goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,05 seconds (calibrated simulation).
Model X P100D: 762 hp, ratio 3,24 kg/hp. X3 xDrive30e G01: 292 hp, ratio 6,82 kg/hp.
Model X P100D: 250 km/h. X3 xDrive30e G01: 210 km/h.
