About the DS 3 Cabrio 1.6 BlueHDi Start and Stop 120
The 2016 DS Automobiles DS 3 Cabrio 1.6 BlueHDi Start and Stop 120 is a front-drive turbodiesel roadster of 1,200 kg with 118 bhp, which works out at 98 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.47 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 7,618th quickest to 60 mph, and the 15th quickest of the 33 DS Automobiless here. Its 84.2 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.

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 Cabrio 1.6 BlueHDi Start and Stop 120 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.
