Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II

The Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II reaches 60 mph in 6.37 s (100 km/h in 6.72 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.89 s, tripping the lights at 94.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.42 s and the eighth mile in 9.69 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 Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II

The 2013 Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II is a front-drive turbocharged coupe of 1,367 kg with 201 bhp, which works out at 147 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.42 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 3,718th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 6th quickest of the 205 Kias here. Its 94.4 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 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II 0-60 time?
The Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II reaches 60 mph in 6.37 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,718th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II quarter mile time?
14.89 s at 94.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.69 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.42 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II have?
201 bhp and 1,367 kg, which is 147 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 230 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II?
Closest here on pace: Renault Megane GT Mk IV (6.38 s), Lotus Esprit 2.2 162 (6.34 s), MG F 1.8 SE Trophy 160 (6.35 s). Each one can be raced against the Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II 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 Kia Ceed GT 1.6T GDI Mk II is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 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.
