Citroen C8 2.2 HDi 170

The Citroen C8 2.2 HDi 170 reaches 60 mph in 8.60 s (100 km/h in 9.62 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.72 s, tripping the lights at 82.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.55 s and the eighth mile in 10.79 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 C8 2.2 HDi 170

The 2002 Citroen C8 2.2 HDi 170 is a front-drive turbodiesel MPV of 1,790 kg with 168 bhp, which works out at 94 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 7,703rd quickest to 60 mph, and the 50th quickest of the 387 Citroens here. Its 82.7 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 C8 2.2 HDi 170 0-60 time?
The Citroen C8 2.2 HDi 170 reaches 60 mph in 8.60 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,703rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Citroen C8 2.2 HDi 170 quarter mile time?
16.72 s at 82.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.79 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.55 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Citroen C8 2.2 HDi 170 have?
168 bhp and 1,790 kg, which is 94 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Citroen C8 2.2 HDi 170?
Closest here on pace: Renault Scenic 2.0 dCi 150 (8.53 s), Renault Grand Espace 3.0 dCi V6 24V 180 (8.68 s), Ford S-Max 1.5 EcoBoost 160 (8.52 s). Each one can be raced against the Citroen C8 2.2 HDi 170 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 C8 2.2 HDi 170 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.
