The 2016 DS Automobiles DS 3 1.2 PureTech 82 is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 980 kg with 80 bhp, which works out at 82 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.48 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 13,645th quickest to 60 mph, and the 32nd quickest of the 33 DS Automobiless here. Its 73.3 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.
