Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI

The Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI reaches 60 mph in 9.19 s (100 km/h in 9.60 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.10 s, tripping the lights at 89.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.05 s and the eighth mile in 11.49 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 Sonata 2.4 Mk VI

The 2011 Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,503 kg with 198 bhp, which works out at 132 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.05 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 8,768th quickest to 60 mph, and the 87th quickest of the 295 Hyundais here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 89.3 mph, the 5,423rd highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 9 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 Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI 0-60 time?
The Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI reaches 60 mph in 9.19 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,768th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI quarter mile time?
17.10 s at 89.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.49 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.05 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI have?
198 bhp and 1,503 kg, which is 132 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 220 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI?
Closest here on pace: GMC Jimmy 3dr 4.3 V6 194 (9.19 s), Opel Kadett GTE (9.19 s), Renault 5 3dr 1.4 Alpine 92 (9.18 s). Each one can be raced against the Hyundai Sonata 2.4 Mk VI 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 Sonata 2.4 Mk VI is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 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.
