Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294

The Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294 reaches 60 mph in 6.63 s (100 km/h in 6.94 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.04 s, tripping the lights at 97.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.71 s and the eighth mile in 9.96 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 DeVille 4.6 V8 294

The 1999 Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,821 kg with 290 bhp, which works out at 159 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.71 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 4,057th quickest to 60 mph, and the 31st quickest of the 65 Cadillacs here. Its 97.6 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 Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294 0-60 time?
The Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294 reaches 60 mph in 6.63 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,057th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294 quarter mile time?
15.04 s at 97.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.96 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.71 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294 have?
290 bhp and 1,821 kg, which is 159 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 210 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294?
Closest here on pace: Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.3 Turbo Aero 260 (6.60 s), Buick Regal 2.0 Turbo 259 (6.67 s), Mercury Milan 3.0 V6 Flex Fuel 250 (6.51 s). Each one can be raced against the Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294 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 Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 294 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.
