What is the Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400 0-60 time?

The Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400 reaches 60 mph in 5.17 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 2,327th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400 quarter mile time?

14.00 s at 95.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.87 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.00 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400 have?

394 bhp and 2,231 kg, which is 177 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 8 gears and a quoted top speed of 192 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400?

Closest here on pace: Subaru Forester 2.5 STi 256 (5.31 s), Jaguar F-Pace 3.0 340 (5.19 s), Cupra Terramar 2.0 TSI 265 (5.25 s). Each one can be raced against the Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400 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 Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400 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.

About the Defender 90 3.0 400

The 2019 Land Rover Defender 90 3.0 400 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged SUV of 2,231 kg with 394 bhp, which works out at 177 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.00 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 2,327th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 4th quickest of the 86 Land Rovers here. It leaves better than it pulls: 95.8 mph at the lights is only the 3,513th 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.
