Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 136

The Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 136 reaches 60 mph in 9.08 s (100 km/h in 9.61 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.80 s, tripping the lights at 82.1 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.69 s and the eighth mile in 10.82 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 Kappa 2.4 JTD 136

The 1995 Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 136 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,540 kg with 134 bhp, which works out at 87 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.69 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 8,563rd quickest to 60 mph, and the 54th quickest of the 150 Lancias here. Its 82.1 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 Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 136 0-60 time?
The Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 136 reaches 60 mph in 9.08 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 8,563rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 136 quarter mile time?
16.80 s at 82.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.82 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.69 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 136 have?
134 bhp and 1,540 kg, which is 87 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 202 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 136?
Closest here on pace: Kia Optima / Magentis 1.7 CRDi 141 (9.11 s), Jaguar X-Type 2.0D 130 (8.99 s), Skoda Superb 1.4 TSI 125 (2008) (9.03 s). Each one can be raced against the Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 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 Lancia Kappa 2.4 JTD 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.
