Aston Martin DB4 Zagato

The Aston Martin DB4 Zagato reaches 60 mph in 8.49 s (100 km/h in 8.81 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.13 s, tripping the lights at 99.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.92 s and the eighth mile in 11.02 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.

Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

About the DB4 Zagato

The 1960 Aston Martin DB4 Zagato is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,150 kg with 310 bhp, which works out at 269 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 269 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.92 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,461st quickest to 60 mph, and the 80th quickest of the 84 Aston Martins here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 99.7 mph, the 2,791st highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 7 of 7 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.

Questions

What is the Aston Martin DB4 Zagato 0-60 time?
The Aston Martin DB4 Zagato reaches 60 mph in 8.49 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,461st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Aston Martin DB4 Zagato quarter mile time?
16.13 s at 99.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.02 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.92 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Aston Martin DB4 Zagato have?
310 bhp and 1,150 kg, which is 269 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 245 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Aston Martin DB4 Zagato?
Closest here on pace: Alpine A110 Berlinette 1.1 95 (8.25 s), Saab 9-3 Coupe 2.0 Turbo 205 (8.21 s), Chrysler 300C Convertible 6.4 V8 390 (8.27 s). Each one can be raced against the Aston Martin DB4 Zagato 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 Aston Martin DB4 Zagato is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 7 of its 7 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
