The 2021 BMW M3 G80 is a rear-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,705 kg with 473 bhp, which works out at 278 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 278 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.03 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,036th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 96th quickest of the 1324 BMWs here. Its 117.7 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 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.
