BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 vs BYD Sealion 7 EV

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the BYD Sealion 7 EV is the quicker car, covering it in 12.81 s at 109.3 mph against the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211’s 15.09 s — a margin of 2.28 s. To 60 mph the BYD Sealion 7 EV takes 4.25 s and the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 6.59 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 or the BYD Sealion 7 EV faster?
The BYD Sealion 7 EV. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 12.81 s to the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211's 15.09 s, a margin of 2.28 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 4.25 s against 6.59 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 0-60 time?
The BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 reaches 60 mph in 6.59 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.09 s at 89.4 mph.
What is the BYD Sealion 7 EV 0-60 time?
The BYD Sealion 7 EV reaches 60 mph in 4.25 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.81 s at 109.3 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 trips the lights at 89.4 mph and the BYD Sealion 7 EV at 109.3 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 2 of 2 for the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 and 8 of 10 for the BYD Sealion 7 EV. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
