About the Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62

The 2009 Chevrolet Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62 is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,027 kg with 62 bhp, which works out at 60 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.99 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 13,831st quickest to 60 mph, and the 194th quickest of the 199 Chevrolets here. Its 70.2 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 Chevrolet Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62 0-60 time?
The Chevrolet Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62 reaches 60 mph in 13.43 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 13,831st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Chevrolet Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62 quarter mile time?
19.40 s at 70.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 12.37 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.99 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Chevrolet Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62 have?
62 bhp and 1,027 kg, which is 60 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 154 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Chevrolet Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62?
Closest here on pace: Dacia Logan 1.5 dCi 68 (13.47 s), Dacia Logan 1.5 dCI 70 (13.47 s), Holden Astra 5dr 1.7 CDTI 80 (13.55 s). Each one can be raced against the Chevrolet Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62 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 Matiz / Spark (M300) 1.0 62 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.
