About the 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122

The 2018 Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,300 kg with 121 bhp, which works out at 93 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.87 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 9,385th quickest to 60 mph, and the 111th quickest of the 201 Mazdas here. Its 81.2 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 Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122 0-60 time?
The Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122 reaches 60 mph in 9.56 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,385th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122 quarter mile time?
17.38 s at 81.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.26 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 Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122 have?
121 bhp and 1,300 kg, which is 93 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 203 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122?
Closest here on pace: Chrysler Sebring Sedan 2.0 141 (9.58 s), Nissan Primera Traveller 2.0 16V 116 (9.57 s), Holden Vectra Sedan 1.8 126 (9.58 s). Each one can be raced against the Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122 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 Mazda 3 / Axela Sedan 2.0 Skyactiv-G 122 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.
