Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) vs BMW X5 xDrive40i 380

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) is the quicker car, covering it in 12.42 s at 115.1 mph against the BMW X5 xDrive40i 380’s 13.38 s — a margin of 0.96 s. To 60 mph the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) takes 4.20 s and the BMW X5 xDrive40i 380 4.84 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 Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) or the BMW X5 xDrive40i 380 faster?
The Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650). Over a standing quarter mile it runs 12.42 s to the BMW X5 xDrive40i 380's 13.38 s, a margin of 0.96 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 4.20 s against 4.84 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) 0-60 time?
The Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) reaches 60 mph in 4.20 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.42 s at 115.1 mph.
What is the BMW X5 xDrive40i 380 0-60 time?
The BMW X5 xDrive40i 380 reaches 60 mph in 4.84 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.38 s at 102.4 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) trips the lights at 115.1 mph and the BMW X5 xDrive40i 380 at 102.4 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 — 3 of 3 for the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) and 2 of 2 for the BMW X5 xDrive40i 380. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
