Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211

The Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211 reaches 60 mph in 7.06 s (100 km/h in 7.53 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.45 s, tripping the lights at 87.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.16 s and the eighth mile in 9.79 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 GLK 250 4MATIC 211

The 2012 Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged SUV of 1,725 kg with 208 bhp, which works out at 120 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.16 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 4,775th quickest to 60 mph, and the 622nd quickest of the 1380 Mercedes-Benzs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 87.5 mph at the lights is only the 6,141st highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211 reaches 60 mph in 7.06 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,775th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211 quarter mile time?
15.45 s at 87.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.79 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.16 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211 have?
208 bhp and 1,725 kg, which is 120 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 216 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211?
Closest here on pace: Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 250 (7.06 s), Audi Q7 3.0 TFSI 272 (7.07 s), BMW X1 20d sDrive 184 (7.07 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
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 Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 4MATIC 211 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
