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 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,172nd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 443rd quickest of the 1324 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.
