About the Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136

The 2010 Kia Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,595 kg with 134 bhp, which works out at 84 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.71 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 10,940th quickest to 60 mph, and the 122nd quickest of the 205 Kias here. Its 77.9 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.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

Questions

What is the Kia Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136 0-60 time?

The Kia Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136 reaches 60 mph in 10.47 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 10,940th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the Kia Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136 quarter mile time?

17.66 s at 77.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.31 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.71 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the Kia Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136 have?

134 bhp and 1,595 kg, which is 84 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 196 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the Kia Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136?

Closest here on pace: Lancia Kappa 2.4 Turbo 124 (10.44 s), SEAT Altea XL 1.2 TSI 105 (10.53 s), Mazda 626 (Mk.5) Sedan 2.0 DiTD 100 (10.42 s). Each one can be raced against the Kia Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136 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 Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 136 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.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
