Hyundai Veloster 1.6 140

The Hyundai Veloster 1.6 140 reaches 60 mph in 9.17 s (100 km/h in 9.89 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.12 s, tripping the lights at 81.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.83 s and the eighth mile in 11.07 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 Veloster 1.6 140

The 2011 Hyundai Veloster 1.6 140 is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,295 kg with 138 bhp, which works out at 107 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.83 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 8,716th quickest to 60 mph, and the 86th quickest of the 295 Hyundais here. Its 81.6 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 Veloster 1.6 140 0-60 time?
The Hyundai Veloster 1.6 140 reaches 60 mph in 9.17 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,716th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Hyundai Veloster 1.6 140 quarter mile time?
17.12 s at 81.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.07 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.83 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Hyundai Veloster 1.6 140 have?
138 bhp and 1,295 kg, which is 107 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Hyundai Veloster 1.6 140?
Closest here on pace: Renault 5 3dr 1.4 Alpine 92 (9.18 s), Toyota Ipsum (9.16 s), GMC Jimmy 5dr 4.3 V6 194 (9.13 s). Each one can be raced against the Hyundai Veloster 1.6 140 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 Veloster 1.6 140 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.
