About the A3 Sportback 1.6 102

The 2004 Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 102 (2004) is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,245 kg with 101 bhp, which works out at 81 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.16 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 11,832nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 1,246th quickest of the 1320 Audis here. Its 77.6 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.

The Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 102 (2004) reaches 60 mph in 11.13 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 11,832nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 102 (2004) quarter mile time?
18.32 s at 77.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.97 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.16 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 102 (2004) have?
101 bhp and 1,245 kg, which is 81 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 185 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 102 (2004)?
Closest here on pace: Honda Jazz/Fit 1.4i CVT 83 (11.13 s), Daewoo Tacuma/Rezzo 1.6 107 (11.09 s), Proton Iriz 1.3 95 (11.08 s). Each one can be raced against the Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 102 (2004) 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 Sportback 1.6 102 (2004) 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.

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.
