About the Wrangler 4.0 184

The 1987 Jeep Wrangler 4.0 184 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,529 kg with 181 bhp, which works out at 118 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.87 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 9,947th quickest to 60 mph, and the 49th quickest of the 68 Jeeps here. Its 78.9 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 Wrangler 4.0 184 0-60 time?
The Jeep Wrangler 4.0 184 reaches 60 mph in 9.90 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,947th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Jeep Wrangler 4.0 184 quarter mile time?
17.61 s at 78.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.35 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.87 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Jeep Wrangler 4.0 184 have?
181 bhp and 1,529 kg, which is 118 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 170 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Jeep Wrangler 4.0 184?
Closest here on pace: Suzuki Escudo / Grand Vitara 5dr 2.5 V6 144 (9.91 s), Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero/Shogun SWB 3.8 V6 250 (9.81 s), Honda CR-V 2.4 166 (9.99 s). Each one can be raced against the Jeep Wrangler 4.0 184 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 Wrangler 4.0 184 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.
