The 2005 Mazda 6/Atenza Wagon 2.3 16V 166 (2005) is a front-drive naturally aspirated estate of 1,410 kg with 164 bhp, which works out at 116 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.99 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 8,717th quickest to 60 mph, and the 92nd quickest of the 201 Mazdas here. Its 83.6 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.

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.
