The 2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser Convertible 2.4 143 is a front-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,505 kg with 141 bhp, which works out at 94 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.92 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 9,102nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 50th quickest of the 76 Chryslers here. Its 82.6 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.
