About the Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225

The 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,826 kg with 220 bhp, which works out at 120 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.81 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 6,811th quickest to 60 mph, and the 13th quickest of the 68 Jeeps here. Its 86.5 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 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225 0-60 time?
The Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225 reaches 60 mph in 8.15 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,811th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225 quarter mile time?
16.36 s at 86.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.67 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.81 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225 have?
220 bhp and 1,826 kg, which is 120 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 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 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225?
Closest here on pace: Volvo XC70 3.2 238 (8.12 s), Nissan Quest 3.5 V6 235 (8.15 s), Lexus RX 300 V6 204 (8.15 s). Each one can be raced against the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225 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 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 225 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.
