BMW 330i (G20) vs BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the BMW 330i (G20) is the quicker car, covering it in 13.72 s at 100.9 mph against the BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272’s 13.94 s — a margin of 0.22 s. To 60 mph the BMW 330i (G20) takes 5.21 s and the BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272 5.53 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the BMW 330i (G20) or the BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272 faster?
The BMW 330i (G20). Over a standing quarter mile it runs 13.72 s to the BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272's 13.94 s, a margin of 0.22 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 5.21 s against 5.53 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the BMW 330i (G20) 0-60 time?
The BMW 330i (G20) reaches 60 mph in 5.21 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.72 s at 100.9 mph.
What is the BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272 0-60 time?
The BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272 reaches 60 mph in 5.53 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.94 s at 101.0 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The BMW 330i (G20) trips the lights at 100.9 mph and the BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272 at 101.0 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 1 of 1 for the BMW 330i (G20) and 2 of 2 for the BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) 330i xDrive 272. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
