Off the line, the Bmw 225d Convertible hits 100 km/h in 6.54 s versus 6.58 s for the P7. Despite lacking instant torque, 224 hp of power compensates. The 0.04 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the Bmw 225d Convertible is doing 127 km/h against 127 km/h for the P7. The gap is 0.04 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 225d Convertible crosses the line in 14.76 s versus 14.81 s. The 0.05 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track — barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 225d Convertible continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 175 km/h versus 170 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 225d Convertible finishes in 26.79 s versus 27.64 s, with a 0.85 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the P7 is capped at 170 km/h, the Bmw 225d Convertible at 231 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.18 seconds. The 0.04 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
