Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126

The Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126 reaches 60 mph in 9.55 s (100 km/h in 10.10 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.07 s, tripping the lights at 81.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.78 s and the eighth mile in 11.03 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.

Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

About the Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126

The 1995 Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,480 kg with 123 bhp, which works out at 83 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.78 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 9,337th quickest to 60 mph, and the 54th quickest of the 110 Holdens here. Its 81.4 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 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126 0-60 time?
The Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126 reaches 60 mph in 9.55 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,337th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126 quarter mile time?
17.07 s at 81.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.03 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.78 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126 have?
123 bhp and 1,480 kg, which is 83 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 207 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126?
Closest here on pace: Fiat Viaggio 1.4 120 (9.53 s), Mitsubishi Lancer 1.8 DI-D 116 (9.64 s), BMW 3 Series (E90) 318d 122 (9.55 s). Each one can be raced against the Holden Vectra Sedan 2.2 DTI 126 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 Sedan 2.2 DTI 126 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.
