Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200

The Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200 reaches 60 mph in 7.95 s (100 km/h in 8.36 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.25 s, tripping the lights at 90.0 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.87 s and the eighth mile in 10.75 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 Statesman 3.8 V6 200

The 1999 Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,686 kg with 197 bhp, which works out at 117 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 117 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.87 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 6,408th quickest to 60 mph, and the 31st quickest of the 110 Holdens here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 90.0 mph, the 5,162nd highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200 0-60 time?
The Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200 reaches 60 mph in 7.95 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,408th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200 quarter mile time?
16.25 s at 90.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.75 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.87 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200 have?
197 bhp and 1,686 kg, which is 117 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200?
Closest here on pace: Volvo S60 2.0 T 180 (2000) (7.94 s), Volvo S60 2.4 170 (2004) (7.93 s), Ford Mondeo Sedan 2.5 V6 170 (2000) (7.93 s). Each one can be raced against the Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200 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 Holden Statesman 3.8 V6 200 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.
