Jensen Interceptor III Six Pack

The Jensen Interceptor III Six Pack reaches 60 mph in 6.93 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.40 s, tripping the lights at 93.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.68 s and the eighth mile in 10.12 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 Interceptor III Six Pack

The 1972 Jensen Interceptor III Six Pack is a rear-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,837 kg with 385 bhp, which works out at 210 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 210 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.68 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 2,355th quickest to 60 mph, and the 2nd quickest of the 4 Jensens here. Its 93.3 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 8 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

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 Jensen Interceptor III Six Pack is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 8 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
