The foot per second (plural feet per second) is a unit of both speed (scalar) and velocity (vector quantity, which includes direction). [1] It expresses the distance in feet (ft) traveled or displaced, divided by the time in seconds (s). [2] The corresponding unit in the International System of Units (SI) is the meter per second.
But only vehicles equipped with the 8-speed automatic will have 442 ft/lbs; torque remains at 406 ft/lbs with the 6-speed manual transmission. BMW has stated the manual transmission 2025 M2 will be 0.1 seconds quicker zero-to-60 mph (97 km/h) time, bringing it to a claimed 4.1 seconds.

The time it takes a vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour (97 km/h or 27 m/s), often said as just "zero to sixty" or "nought to sixty", is a commonly used performance measure for automotive acceleration in the United States and the United Kingdom. In the rest of the world, 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62.1 mph) is used.
