Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141

The Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141 reaches 60 mph in 11.67 s (100 km/h in 12.38 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 19.00 s, tripping the lights at 76.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.39 s and the eighth mile in 12.54 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 PT Cruiser 2.0 141

The 2000 Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141 is a front-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,410 kg with 139 bhp, which works out at 99 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.39 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 12,447th quickest to 60 mph, and the 72nd quickest of the 76 Chryslers here. Its 76.5 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.

Questions

What is the Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141 0-60 time?
The Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141 reaches 60 mph in 11.67 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 12,447th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141 quarter mile time?
19.00 s at 76.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 12.54 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.39 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141 have?
139 bhp and 1,410 kg, which is 99 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 166 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141?
Closest here on pace: Jeep Wrangler TJ 4.0 177 (11.69 s), Holden Astra TwinTop 1.8 140 (11.67 s), Suzuki Ignis 1.2 DualJet 83 (11.64 s). Each one can be raced against the Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141 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 Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.0 141 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.
