About the Z4 20i G29

The 2019 BMW Z4 20i G29 is a rear-drive turbocharged roadster of 1,453 kg with 194 bhp, which works out at 134 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 134 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.21 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 1,914th quickest to 60 mph, and the 209th quickest of the 297 BMWs here. Its 95.5 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 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

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 Z4 20i G29 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-01. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
