Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 126

The Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 126 reaches 60 mph in 8.65 s (100 km/h in 9.14 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.64 s, tripping the lights at 84.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.76 s and the eighth mile in 10.79 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 i20 1.6 16v 126

The 2009 Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 126 is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,035 kg with 125 bhp, which works out at 120 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.76 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 7,791st quickest to 60 mph, and the 72nd quickest of the 295 Hyundais here. Its 84.3 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 i20 1.6 16v 126 0-60 time?
The Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 126 reaches 60 mph in 8.65 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,791st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 126 quarter mile time?
16.64 s at 84.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.79 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.76 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 126 have?
125 bhp and 1,035 kg, which is 120 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 190 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 126?
Closest here on pace: Fiat Uno Turbo Mk I (8.66 s), Renault Wind 1.6 16v 133 (8.65 s), Alfa Romeo 33 1.7 107 (8.65 s). Each one can be raced against the Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 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 Hyundai i20 1.6 16v 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.
