BMW M5 F90

The BMW M5 F90 reaches 60 mph in 2.89 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.00 s, tripping the lights at 126.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.70 s and the eighth mile in 7.08 s, reaching 100 mph in 6.91 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 M5 F90

The 2017 BMW M5 F90 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged supercar of 1,855 kg with 591 bhp, which works out at 319 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.70 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 183rd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 4th quickest of the 297 BMWs here. Its 126.2 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 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

What cars are comparable to the BMW M5 F90?
Closest here on pace: Nissan GT-R R35 570PS (2.83 s), Audi R8 V10 Spyder Mk II (2.90 s), Honda NSX Mk II (2.93 s). Each one can be raced against the BMW M5 F90 in the panel at the top of this page.
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 M5 F90 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
