Hyundai i30 N Mk III vs BMW 128ti F40

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the BMW 128ti F40 is the quicker car, covering it in 14.00 s at 101.1 mph against the Hyundai i30 N Mk III’s 14.22 s — a margin of 0.22 s. To 60 mph the BMW 128ti F40 takes 5.50 s and the Hyundai i30 N Mk III 5.77 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 Hyundai i30 N Mk III or the BMW 128ti F40 faster?
The BMW 128ti F40. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 14.00 s to the Hyundai i30 N Mk III's 14.22 s, a margin of 0.22 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 5.50 s against 5.77 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Hyundai i30 N Mk III 0-60 time?
The Hyundai i30 N Mk III reaches 60 mph in 5.77 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 14.22 s at 100.6 mph.
What is the BMW 128ti F40 0-60 time?
The BMW 128ti F40 reaches 60 mph in 5.50 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 14.00 s at 101.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Hyundai i30 N Mk III trips the lights at 100.6 mph and the BMW 128ti F40 at 101.1 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 Hyundai i30 N Mk III and 10 of 10 for the BMW 128ti F40. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
