Audi A4 2.0 TDI 177

The Audi A4 2.0 TDI 177 reaches 60 mph in 7.44 s (100 km/h in 7.84 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.71 s, tripping the lights at 90.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.47 s and the eighth mile in 10.19 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 A4 2.0 TDI 177

The 2012 Audi A4 2.0 TDI 177 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,555 kg with 174 bhp, which works out at 112 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.47 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 5,448th quickest to 60 mph, and the 702nd quickest of the 1320 Audis here. Its 90.6 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.

Questions

What is the Audi A4 2.0 TDI 177 0-60 time?
The Audi A4 2.0 TDI 177 reaches 60 mph in 7.44 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,448th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Audi A4 2.0 TDI 177 quarter mile time?
15.71 s at 90.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.19 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.47 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Audi A4 2.0 TDI 177 have?
174 bhp and 1,555 kg, which is 112 bhp per tonne. It is front-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 A4 2.0 TDI 177?
Closest here on pace: Volvo S90 D4 (7.45 s), Volvo S60 2.4 D 185 (7.44 s), Jaguar XF (X250) 2.7D 207 (7.37 s). Each one can be raced against the Audi A4 2.0 TDI 177 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 A4 2.0 TDI 177 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.
