Off the line, the G6 hits 100 km/h in 3.80 s versus 5.49 s for the Bmw 740e iPerformance. At this point, the G6 leads by 1.69 s and sits roughly 10 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the G6 is doing 152 km/h against 133 km/h for the Bmw 740e iPerformance. The gap is 1.10 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the G6 crosses the line in 12.03 s versus 13.68 s. The 1.65 s gap represents roughly 74 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the G6 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 200 km/h versus 187 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the G6 finishes in 22.89 s versus 24.90 s, with a 2.01 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h), the Bmw 740e iPerformance never recovers its launch deficit.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the G6 is capped at 200 km/h, the Bmw 740e iPerformance at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) 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 (4.41 kg/hp vs 5.83 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.52 seconds. The 1.69 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.
