About the Vectra 1.8 122

The 2002 Holden Vectra 1.8 122 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,395 kg with 121 bhp, which works out at 87 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.09 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 10,527th quickest to 60 mph, and the 68th quickest of the 110 Holdens here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 81.2 mph, the 9,359th 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.

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.

Questions

What is the Holden Vectra 1.8 122 0-60 time?

The Holden Vectra 1.8 122 reaches 60 mph in 10.23 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 10,527th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the Holden Vectra 1.8 122 quarter mile time?

17.68 s at 81.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.63 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.09 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the Holden Vectra 1.8 122 have?

121 bhp and 1,395 kg, which is 87 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 205 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the Holden Vectra 1.8 122?

Closest here on pace: Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 1.6 CD 110 (10.24 s), Nissan Primera Sedan 1.6 16V 90 (10.20 s), Hyundai i40 Saloon 1.6 GDI 135 (10.26 s). Each one can be raced against the Holden Vectra 1.8 122 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 Vectra 1.8 122 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.
