Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150

The Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150 reaches 60 mph in 8.49 s (100 km/h in 8.94 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.73 s, tripping the lights at 87.0 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.97 s and the eighth mile in 11.05 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 Cavalier 2.4 150

The 1994 Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,238 kg with 150 bhp, which works out at 121 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.97 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 7,484th quickest to 60 mph, and the 101st quickest of the 199 Chevrolets here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 87.0 mph, the 6,374th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. 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.

Questions

What is the Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150 0-60 time?
The Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150 reaches 60 mph in 8.49 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,484th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150 quarter mile time?
16.73 s at 87.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.05 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.97 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150 have?
150 bhp and 1,238 kg, which is 121 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 190 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150?
Closest here on pace: Volvo 760 2.8 170 (8.50 s), Hyundai XG 3.0i V6 192 (8.49 s), MG ZT 2.5 V6 180 (8.45 s). Each one can be raced against the Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150 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 Chevrolet Cavalier 2.4 150 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.
