BMW 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto

The BMW 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto reaches 60 mph in 6.89 s (100 km/h in 7.34 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.29 s, tripping the lights at 88.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.14 s and the eighth mile in 9.70 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 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto

The 2012 BMW 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto is an all-wheel-drive turbodiesel estate of 1,585 kg with 181 bhp, which works out at 114 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.14 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 4,444th quickest to 60 mph, and the 641st quickest of the 1324 BMWs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 88.6 mph at the lights is only the 5,663rd 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.

The BMW 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto reaches 60 mph in 6.89 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,444th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the BMW 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto quarter mile time?
15.29 s at 88.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.70 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.14 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the BMW 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto have?
181 bhp and 1,585 kg, which is 114 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbodiesel, with 8 gears and a quoted top speed of 222 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the BMW 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto?
Closest here on pace: Volvo V60 D4 190 (6.97 s), Audi A4 Avant 2.0 40 TDI quattro S tronic 190 (6.80 s), Mercedes-Benz C-Class T-Modell (S205) C 200 183 Auto (6.77 s). Each one can be raced against the BMW 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto 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 3 Series Touring (F31) 320d xDrive 184 Auto 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.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
