The 2003 Alfa Romeo 166 2.4 JTD 20V 175 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,540 kg with 173 bhp, which works out at 112 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.75 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,226th quickest to 60 mph, and the 115th quickest of the 268 Alfa Romeos here. Its 85.0 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
