The 2021 BMW M3 Competition G80 is a rear-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,765 kg with 503 bhp, which works out at 285 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 285 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.88 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 542nd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 28th quickest of the 1324 BMWs here. Its 122.6 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 7 of 8 published acceleration figures for this car.
