Ranger Wildtrak EcoBlue 213 vs Bmw 120i: chronicle of a drag race at 235 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Bmw 120i hits 100 km/h in 6.95 s versus 9.86 s for the Ranger Wildtrak EcoBlue 213. At this point, the Bmw 120i leads by 2.91 s and sits roughly 36 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Bmw 120i is doing 123 km/h against 111 km/h for the Ranger Wildtrak EcoBlue 213. The gap is 1.86 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Bmw 120i crosses the line in 15.05 s versus 17.44 s. The 2.39 s gap represents roughly 88 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Bmw 120i continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 171 km/h versus 153 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Bmw 120i finishes in 27.31 s versus 31.20 s, with a 3.89 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Ranger Wildtrak EcoBlue 213 is capped at 178 km/h, the Bmw 120i at 235 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit — it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (9.42 kg/hp vs 7.81 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 15.45 seconds. The 2.91 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Bmw 120i has a clear edge over the Ford Ranger Wildtrak EcoBlue 213 to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
