Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 is the quicker car,
covering it in 15.09 s at
89.4 mph against the Subaru Forester 2.0 147’s
17.04 s — a margin of
1.94 s. To 60 mph the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 takes
6.59 s and the Subaru Forester 2.0 147
9.16 s.
Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass,
rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures.

Each car is trimmed to its own published figures —
2/2 for the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211,
2/2 for the Subaru Forester 2.0 147 —
so a heavier car can still be the quicker one if that is what it tests.
Is the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 or the Subaru Forester 2.0 147 faster?
The BMW X1 xDrive23d 211. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.09 s to the Subaru Forester 2.0 147's 17.04 s, a margin of 1.94 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 6.59 s against 9.16 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 0-60 time?
The BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 reaches 60 mph in 6.59 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.09 s at 89.4 mph.
What is the Subaru Forester 2.0 147 0-60 time?
The Subaru Forester 2.0 147 reaches 60 mph in 9.16 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 17.04 s at 80.3 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 trips the lights at 89.4 mph and the Subaru Forester 2.0 147 at 80.3 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 — 2 of 2 for the BMW X1 xDrive23d 211 and 2 of 2 for the Subaru Forester 2.0 147. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
