Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128

The Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128 reaches 60 mph in 10.47 s (100 km/h in 11.17 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.82 s, tripping the lights at 79.0 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.94 s and the eighth mile in 11.54 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 Elantra 1.6 128

The 2016 Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,250 kg with 126 bhp, which works out at 101 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.94 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 10,933rd quickest to 60 mph, and the 166th quickest of the 295 Hyundais here. Its 79.0 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 Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128 0-60 time?
The Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128 reaches 60 mph in 10.47 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 10,933rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128 quarter mile time?
17.82 s at 79.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.54 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.94 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128 have?
126 bhp and 1,250 kg, which is 101 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 195 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128?
Closest here on pace: Saab 9000 CD 2.0i 130 (10.50 s), Kia Rio Sedan 1.5 CRDi 110 (2009) (10.39 s), Lancia Thema 2.0 116 (10.41 s). Each one can be raced against the Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128 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 Hyundai Elantra 1.6 128 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.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
