Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184

The Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184 reaches 60 mph in 6.08 s (100 km/h in 6.46 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.68 s, tripping the lights at 92.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.16 s and the eighth mile in 9.36 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 A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184

The 2016 Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184 is an all-wheel-drive turbodiesel car of 1,470 kg with 181 bhp, which works out at 123 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.16 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,339th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 381st quickest of the 1320 Audis here. It leaves better than it pulls: 92.9 mph at the lights is only the 4,284th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184 0-60 time?
The Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184 reaches 60 mph in 6.08 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,339th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184 quarter mile time?
14.68 s at 92.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.36 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.16 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184 have?
181 bhp and 1,470 kg, which is 123 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 230 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184?
Closest here on pace: Mercedes-Benz A-Class (W176) 220 4MATIC 183 (2015) (6.14 s), MINI Clubman Cooper S ALL4 2.0 192 (6.17 s), Eagle Talon TSi AWD (5.99 s). Each one can be raced against the Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184 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 Audi A3 2.0 TDI quattro 184 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.
