What is the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 0-60 time?

The BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 reaches 60 mph in 8.86 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,157th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 quarter mile time?

16.86 s at 81.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.84 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.54 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 have?

114 bhp and 1,385 kg, which is 82 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116?

Closest here on pace: Fiat Tipo 5dr 1.6 MultiJet 120 (8.88 s), Mitsubishi Colt 5dr 1.5 DI-D 95 (8.96 s), VW Jetta 2.0 TDI Mk V (8.82 s). Each one can be raced against the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

Are these real measured times?

No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116

The BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 reaches 60 mph in 8.86 s (100 km/h in 9.91 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.86 s, tripping the lights at 81.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.54 s and the eighth mile in 10.84 s.

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

About the 1 Series (F20) 116d 116

The 2020 BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,385 kg with 114 bhp, which works out at 82 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.54 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 8,157th quickest to 60 mph, and the 1,096th quickest of the 1324 BMWs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 81.3 mph at the lights is only the 9,317th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.
