Toyota GR Corolla vs BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143
Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Toyota GR Corolla is the quicker car,
covering it in 13.39 s at
105.2 mph against the BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143’s
16.38 s — a margin of
2.98 s. To 60 mph the Toyota GR Corolla takes
4.85 s and the BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143
8.28 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 —
9/10 for the Toyota GR Corolla,
2/2 for the BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143 —
so a heavier car can still be the quicker one if that is what it tests.
Is the Toyota GR Corolla or the BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143 faster?
The Toyota GR Corolla. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 13.39 s to the BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143's 16.38 s, a margin of 2.98 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 4.85 s against 8.28 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Toyota GR Corolla 0-60 time?
The Toyota GR Corolla reaches 60 mph in 4.85 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.39 s at 105.2 mph.
What is the BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143 0-60 time?
The BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143 reaches 60 mph in 8.28 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.38 s at 84.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Toyota GR Corolla trips the lights at 105.2 mph and the BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143 at 84.1 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 Toyota GR Corolla and 2 of 2 for the BMW 3 Series (F30) 318 xDrive 143. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
