The 2002 Buick Rendezvous 3.6 247 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,930 kg with 243 bhp, which works out at 126 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 3.22 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 10,788th quickest to 60 mph, and the 20th quickest of the 21 Buicks here. Its 79.8 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.

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.
