Ford Focus 2.0 16v

The Ford Focus 2.0 16v reaches 60 mph in 8.56 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.72 s, tripping the lights at 84.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.77 s and the eighth mile in 10.89 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 Focus 2.0 16v

The 2005 Ford Focus 2.0 16v is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,245 kg with 143 bhp, which works out at 115 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.77 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 2,939 cars in the set it is the 2,742nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 85th quickest of the 110 Fords here. Its 84.4 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 9 of 9 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 Ford Focus 2.0 16v is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
