Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121

The Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121 reaches 60 mph in 8.88 s (100 km/h in 9.41 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.77 s, tripping the lights at 82.0 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.61 s and the eighth mile in 10.75 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 Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121

The 2003 Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121 is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,280 kg with 119 bhp, which works out at 93 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.61 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 8,191st quickest to 60 mph, and the 5th quickest of the 45 Daewoos here. Its 82.0 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 Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121 0-60 time?
The Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121 reaches 60 mph in 8.88 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,191st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121 quarter mile time?
16.77 s at 82.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.75 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.61 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121 have?
119 bhp and 1,280 kg, which is 93 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 186 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121?
Closest here on pace: Chevrolet Nubira/Lacetti 4dr 2.0d 122 (8.88 s), VW Jetta 2.0 TDI Mk V (8.82 s), Jaguar E-Pace D180 180 (8.91 s). Each one can be raced against the Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121 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 Daewoo Lacetti 5dr 2.0 D 121 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.
