Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305

The Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305 reaches 60 mph in 6.41 s (100 km/h in 6.77 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.87 s, tripping the lights at 95.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.46 s and the eighth mile in 9.65 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 Continental 3.7 V6 305

The 2017 Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,916 kg with 304 bhp, which works out at 159 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.46 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 3,771st quickest to 60 mph, and the 4th quickest of the 32 Lincolns here. Its 95.5 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 Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305 0-60 time?
The Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305 reaches 60 mph in 6.41 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,771st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305 quarter mile time?
14.87 s at 95.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.65 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.46 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305 have?
304 bhp and 1,916 kg, which is 159 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 249 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305?
Closest here on pace: Rover 75 4.6 V8 (6.39 s), Volvo C30 T5 230 PS (6.45 s), Saab 9-5 2.8T XWD (6.37 s). Each one can be raced against the Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305 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 Lincoln Continental 3.7 V6 305 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.
