Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194

The Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194 reaches 60 mph in 7.87 s (100 km/h in 8.33 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.14 s, tripping the lights at 88.0 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.78 s and the eighth mile in 10.54 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 Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194

The 2008 Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194 is a front-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,596 kg with 192 bhp, which works out at 120 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.78 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 6,240th quickest to 60 mph, and the 21st quickest of the 205 Kias here. Its 88.0 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 Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194 0-60 time?
The Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194 reaches 60 mph in 7.87 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,240th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194 quarter mile time?
16.14 s at 88.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.54 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.78 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194 have?
192 bhp and 1,596 kg, which is 120 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194?
Closest here on pace: Land Rover Range Rover 4.4 V8 306 (7.88 s), Honda CR-V 2.4 i-VTEC CVT 188 (7.87 s), Buick Envision Plus 552T MHEV 214 (7.78 s). Each one can be raced against the Kia Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194 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 Rondo 2.7 V6 DOHC 194 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.
