Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90

The Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90 reaches 60 mph in 10.28 s (100 km/h in 10.90 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.82 s, tripping the lights at 78.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.97 s and the eighth mile in 11.54 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 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90

The 1988 Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,125 kg with 89 bhp, which works out at 79 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.97 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 10,612th quickest to 60 mph, and the 137th quickest of the 201 Mazdas here. Its 78.6 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.

Questions

What is the Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90 0-60 time?
The Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90 reaches 60 mph in 10.28 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 10,612th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90 quarter mile time?
17.82 s at 78.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.54 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.97 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90 have?
89 bhp and 1,125 kg, which is 79 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 175 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90?
Closest here on pace: Lancia Lybra Sedan 1.6 103 (10.30 s), Hyundai i40 Saloon 1.6 GDI 135 (10.26 s), Nissan Primera Sedan 1.6 16V 90 (10.20 s). Each one can be raced against the Mazda 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90 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 626 (Mk.3) Sedan 2.0 90 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.
