Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100

The Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100 reaches 60 mph in 9.14 s (100 km/h in 9.71 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.98 s, tripping the lights at 80.8 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.62 s and the eighth mile in 10.86 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 Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100

The 2017 Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100 is a front-drive turbocharged car of 993 kg with 99 bhp, which works out at 100 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.62 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 8,680th quickest to 60 mph, and the 51st quickest of the 205 Kias here. It leaves better than it pulls: 80.8 mph at the lights is only the 9,628th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100 0-60 time?
The Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100 reaches 60 mph in 9.14 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,680th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100 quarter mile time?
16.98 s at 80.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.86 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.62 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100 have?
99 bhp and 993 kg, which is 100 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 180 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100?
Closest here on pace: Citroen Saxo 3dr VTS 1.6i 90 (9.11 s), Fiat Bravo 1.8 113 (9.11 s), Dacia Logan 1.6 MPI 105 (9.10 s). Each one can be raced against the Kia Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100 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 Picanto 5dr 1.0 T-GDI 100 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.
