The 2020 BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe M235i xDrive 306 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged car of 1,645 kg with 302 bhp, which works out at 183 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.93 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,535th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 161st quickest of the 1324 BMWs here. Its 106.5 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.
