Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic vs BMW M135i F20

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the BMW M135i F20 is the quicker car, covering it in 13.10 s at 106.7 mph against the Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic’s 13.15 s — a margin of 0.05 s. To 60 mph the BMW M135i F20 takes 4.76 s and the Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic 4.54 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 Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic or the BMW M135i F20 faster?
The BMW M135i F20. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 13.10 s to the Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic's 13.15 s, a margin of 0.05 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 4.76 s against 4.54 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic reaches 60 mph in 4.54 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.15 s at 103.0 mph.
What is the BMW M135i F20 0-60 time?
The BMW M135i F20 reaches 60 mph in 4.76 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.10 s at 106.7 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic trips the lights at 103.0 mph and the BMW M135i F20 at 106.7 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 — 10 of 10 for the Mercedes-AMG A35 4Matic and 9 of 10 for the BMW M135i F20. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
