Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131

The Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131 reaches 60 mph in 7.91 s (100 km/h in 8.34 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.07 s, tripping the lights at 87.8 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.67 s and the eighth mile in 10.44 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 Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131

The 2008 Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131 is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,045 kg with 129 bhp, which works out at 123 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.67 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 6,342nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 173rd quickest of the 789 Fords here. Its 87.8 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 Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131 0-60 time?
The Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131 reaches 60 mph in 7.91 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,342nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131 quarter mile time?
16.07 s at 87.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.44 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.67 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131 have?
129 bhp and 1,045 kg, which is 123 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 195 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131?
Closest here on pace: Suzuki Swift 3dr 1.3 GTI 160 (7.82 s), Fiat Marea 2.0 20V 147 (7.91 s), Peugeot 607 2.7 V6 HDi 204 (7.84 s). Each one can be raced against the Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131 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 Ford Fiesta 5dr 1.6 131 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.
