Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144

The Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 reaches 60 mph in 7.88 s (100 km/h in 8.84 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.36 s, tripping the lights at 86.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.80 s and the eighth mile in 10.70 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the GTV 1.8 TS 144

The 1995 Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,350 kg with 142 bhp, which works out at 105 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.80 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 6,266th quickest to 60 mph, and the 87th quickest of the 268 Alfa Romeos here. Its 86.9 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.

Questions

What is the Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 0-60 time?
The Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 reaches 60 mph in 7.88 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,266th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 quarter mile time?
16.36 s at 86.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.70 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.80 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 have?
142 bhp and 1,350 kg, which is 105 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 209 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144?
Closest here on pace: Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 (7.88 s), Ford Focus 3dr 2.0 TDCi 136 (7.95 s), Ford Focus 5dr 2.0 TDCi 136 (2008) (7.95 s). Each one can be raced against the Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
