Ford Puma ST Mk II vs BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Ford Puma ST Mk II is the quicker car, covering it in 14.60 s at 94.2 mph against the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116’s 16.86 s — a margin of 2.25 s. To 60 mph the Ford Puma ST Mk II takes 5.94 s and the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 8.86 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 Puma ST Mk II or the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 faster?
The Ford Puma ST Mk II. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 14.60 s to the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116's 16.86 s, a margin of 2.25 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 5.94 s against 8.86 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Ford Puma ST Mk II 0-60 time?
The Ford Puma ST Mk II reaches 60 mph in 5.94 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 14.60 s at 94.2 mph.
What is the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 0-60 time?
The BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 reaches 60 mph in 8.86 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.86 s at 81.3 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Ford Puma ST Mk II trips the lights at 94.2 mph and the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116 at 81.3 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 — 9 of 10 for the Ford Puma ST Mk II and 2 of 2 for the BMW 1 Series (F20) 116d 116. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
