Off the line, the 620d Gran Turismo hits 100 km/h in 8.08 s versus 8.23 s for the XC40 B4. At this point, the 620d Gran Turismo leads by 0.15 s and sits roughly 7 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 620d Gran Turismo is doing 114 km/h against 115 km/h for the XC40 B4. The gap is 0.23 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the 620d Gran Turismo crosses the line in 15.92 s versus 16.10 s. The 0.19 s gap represents roughly 7 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the gap narrows. The XC40 B4 maxes out at 180 km/h while the 620d Gran Turismo keeps accelerating towards 220 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.15 s.
At 1,000 metres, the 620d Gran Turismo finishes in 29.25 s versus 29.39 s, with just 0.13 s to spare. The XC40 B4 fails to fully close the launch gap.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the XC40 B4 is capped at 180 km/h, the 620d Gran Turismo 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 combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (8.17 kg/hp vs 9.29 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.44 seconds. The 0.15 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 620d Gran Turismo G32 wins (8,08 s vs 8,23 s).
XC40 B4 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 8,23 seconds (calibrated simulation).
