The 2005 Ford Fusion European 1.4 80 (2005) is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,070 kg with 78 bhp, which works out at 73 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.23 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 13,208th quickest to 60 mph, and the 663rd quickest of the 789 Fords here. Its 73.2 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.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
