MINI Cooper vs Range Rover Sport

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Range Rover Sport is the quicker car, covering it in 15.13 s at 91.8 mph against the MINI Cooper’s 16.66 s — a margin of 1.53 s. To 60 mph the Range Rover Sport takes 6.59 s and the MINI Cooper 8.49 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.

Each car is trimmed to its own published figures — 9/9 for the MINI Cooper, 9/10 for the Range Rover Sport — so a heavier car can still be the quicker one if that is what it tests.

Questions

Is the MINI Cooper or the Range Rover Sport faster?
The Range Rover Sport. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.13 s to the MINI Cooper's 16.66 s, a margin of 1.53 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 6.59 s against 8.49 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the MINI Cooper 0-60 time?
The MINI Cooper reaches 60 mph in 8.49 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.66 s at 83.2 mph.
What is the Range Rover Sport 0-60 time?
The Range Rover Sport 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 15.13 s at 91.8 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The MINI Cooper trips the lights at 83.2 mph and the Range Rover Sport at 91.8 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 9 for the MINI Cooper and 9 of 10 for the Range Rover Sport. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
