About the D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS)

The 1993 Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS) is a rear-drive turbocharged coupe of 650 kg with 267 bhp, which works out at 411 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 411 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.80 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 621st quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 4th quickest of the 10 Donkervoorts here. Its 114.2 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 Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS) 0-60 time?
The Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS) reaches 60 mph in 3.47 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 621st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS) quarter mile time?
12.02 s at 114.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.67 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.80 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS) have?
267 bhp and 650 kg, which is 411 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 235 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS)?
Closest here on pace: Dodge SRT Viper 8.4 V10 650 (3.50 s), KTM X-Bow R 2.0 300 (3.44 s), TVR Tuscan R/T 440R/ T 400R/Typhon 4.2 440 (3.39 s). Each one can be raced against the Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS) 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 Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo (270 RS) 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.
