Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100

The Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100 reaches 60 mph in 9.63 s (100 km/h in 10.20 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.17 s, tripping the lights at 79.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.54 s and the eighth mile in 11.00 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 C3 1.2 PureTech 100

The 2024 Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100 is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,089 kg with 99 bhp, which works out at 91 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.54 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 9,507th quickest to 60 mph, and the 82nd quickest of the 387 Citroens here. Its 79.9 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 Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100 0-60 time?
The Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100 reaches 60 mph in 9.63 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,507th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100 quarter mile time?
17.17 s at 79.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.00 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.54 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100 have?
99 bhp and 1,089 kg, which is 91 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 183 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100?
Closest here on pace: Skoda Fabia 1.0 TSI 95 (Mk4) (9.62 s), Audi A1 1.6 TDI (9.61 s), Renault Captur 1.2 TCe 120 (9.56 s). Each one can be raced against the Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100 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 Citroen C3 1.2 PureTech 100 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.
