The 2011 Chevrolet Sonic Hatchback 5dr 1.8 137 is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,230 kg with 138 bhp, which works out at 112 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.55 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 5,171st quickest to 60 mph, and the 82nd quickest of the 199 Chevrolets here. Its 88.5 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.
