DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130

The DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130 reaches 60 mph in 8.04 s (100 km/h in 8.53 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.30 s, tripping the lights at 84.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.48 s and the eighth mile in 10.51 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 DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130

The 2016 DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130 is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,090 kg with 129 bhp, which works out at 118 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.48 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 6,590th quickest to 60 mph, and the 10th quickest of the 33 DS Automobiless here. Its 84.7 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 DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130 0-60 time?
The DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130 reaches 60 mph in 8.04 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,590th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130 quarter mile time?
16.30 s at 84.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.51 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.48 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130 have?
129 bhp and 1,090 kg, which is 118 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 204 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130?
Closest here on pace: Opel Corsa 3dr 1.4 ecoFLEX 150 (8.05 s), SEAT Leon 2.0 FSI 120 (8.00 s), Jaguar XF 2.7D Mk I (8.02 s). Each one can be raced against the DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130 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 DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 130 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.
