Citroen CX 2.4 128

The Citroen CX 2.4 128 reaches 60 mph in 9.66 s (100 km/h in 10.21 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.34 s, tripping the lights at 81.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.95 s and the eighth mile in 11.30 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 CX 2.4 128

The 1982 Citroen CX 2.4 128 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,309 kg with 123 bhp, which works out at 94 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.95 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 9,581st quickest to 60 mph, and the 86th quickest of the 387 Citroens here. Its 81.6 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.

Questions

What is the Citroen CX 2.4 128 0-60 time?
The Citroen CX 2.4 128 reaches 60 mph in 9.66 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,581st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Citroen CX 2.4 128 quarter mile time?
17.34 s at 81.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.30 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.95 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Citroen CX 2.4 128 have?
123 bhp and 1,309 kg, which is 94 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 192 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Citroen CX 2.4 128?
Closest here on pace: Mitsubishi Galant 2.0i 109 (9.66 s), VW Jetta 2.0 115 (9.67 s), Renault Laguna 2.0 115 (9.67 s). Each one can be raced against the Citroen CX 2.4 128 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 CX 2.4 128 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.
