Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260

The Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260 reaches 60 mph in 5.90 s (100 km/h in 6.20 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.37 s, tripping the lights at 93.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.00 s and the eighth mile in 9.10 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 CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260

The 2009 Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged SUV of 1,740 kg with 256 bhp, which works out at 147 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.00 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 3,141st quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 11th quickest of the 201 Mazdas here. It leaves better than it pulls: 93.6 mph at the lights is only the 4,067th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260 0-60 time?
The Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260 reaches 60 mph in 5.90 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,141st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260 quarter mile time?
14.37 s at 93.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.10 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.00 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260 have?
256 bhp and 1,740 kg, which is 147 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 188 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260?
Closest here on pace: MINI Countryman John Cooper Works 2.0 231 (5.85 s), Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 4MATIC 225 (6.00 s), Range Rover D350 L460 (5.73 s). Each one can be raced against the Mazda CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260 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 CX-7 2.3 Turbo 260 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.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
