DS Automobiles DS3 1.6 HDi 110

The DS Automobiles DS3 1.6 HDi 110 reaches 60 mph in 8.92 s (100 km/h in 9.42 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.67 s, tripping the lights at 82.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.49 s and the eighth mile in 10.71 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 DS3 1.6 HDi 110

The 2014 DS Automobiles DS3 1.6 HDi 110 is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,060 kg with 110 bhp, which works out at 104 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.49 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 8,275th quickest to 60 mph, and the 19th quickest of the 33 DS Automobiless here. Its 82.7 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 DS3 1.6 HDi 110 0-60 time?
The DS Automobiles DS3 1.6 HDi 110 reaches 60 mph in 8.92 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,275th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the DS Automobiles DS3 1.6 HDi 110 quarter mile time?
16.67 s at 82.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.71 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.49 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the DS Automobiles DS3 1.6 HDi 110 have?
110 bhp and 1,060 kg, which is 104 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 190 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the DS Automobiles DS3 1.6 HDi 110?
Closest here on pace: Alfa Romeo 156 Sportwagon 2.4 JTD 140 (8.90 s), Kia Ceed 1.6 CRDi 136 (8.93 s), Nissan Primera Hatchback P10 2.0 16V 125 (8.93 s). Each one can be raced against the DS Automobiles DS3 1.6 HDi 110 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 DS3 1.6 HDi 110 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.
