The 2006 Ford Galaxy 1.6 EcoBoost 160 is a front-drive turbocharged MPV of 1,734 kg with 158 bhp, which works out at 91 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.55 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 7,520th quickest to 60 mph, and the 258th quickest of the 789 Fords here. Its 83.1 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.
