Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120

The Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120 reaches 60 mph in 10.07 s (100 km/h in 10.70 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.74 s, tripping the lights at 78.0 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.87 s and the eighth mile in 11.41 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 Freelander 1.8i 120

The 1998 Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,355 kg with 118 bhp, which works out at 87 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.87 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 10,288th quickest to 60 mph, and the 53rd quickest of the 86 Land Rovers here. Its 78.0 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 Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120 0-60 time?
The Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120 reaches 60 mph in 10.07 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 10,288th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120 quarter mile time?
17.74 s at 78.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.41 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.87 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120 have?
118 bhp and 1,355 kg, which is 87 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 165 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120?
Closest here on pace: Hyundai ix35 / Tucson 1.6 GDI 135 (10.11 s), Suzuki SX4 1.5 99 (10.01 s), Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero/Shogun SWB 3.2 DI-D 200 (10.00 s). Each one can be raced against the Land Rover Freelander 1.8i 120 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 Freelander 1.8i 120 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.
