MINI Cooper SD

The MINI Cooper SD reaches 60 mph in 7.44 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.83 s, tripping the lights at 87.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.45 s and the eighth mile in 10.18 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 Cooper SD

The 2011 MINI Cooper SD is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,206 kg with 141 bhp, which works out at 117 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.45 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 2,939 cars in the set it is the 2,506th quickest to 60 mph, and the 21st quickest of the 23 MINIs here. Its 87.2 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 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

15.83 s at 87.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.18 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.45 s.
How much power does the MINI Cooper SD have?
141 bhp and 1,206 kg, which is 117 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 215 km/h.
What cars are comparable to the MINI Cooper SD?
Closest here on pace: Opel Corsa GSi D (7.44 s), Abarth Grande Punto (7.45 s), Audi A6 2.0 TDI 190 (C7) (7.40 s). Each one can be raced against the MINI Cooper SD 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 MINI Cooper SD is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
