The 2004 Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 1.6 105 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,165 kg with 103 bhp, which works out at 89 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.35 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 12,090th quickest to 60 mph, and the 171st quickest of the 201 Mazdas here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 78.4 mph, the 10,848th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
