About the C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390

The 2018 Mercedes-AMG C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,690 kg with 385 bhp, which works out at 228 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.86 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 1,305th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 45th quickest of the 63 Mercedes-AMGs here. Its 107.1 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 Mercedes-AMG C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-AMG C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390 reaches 60 mph in 4.21 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,305th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-AMG C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390 quarter mile time?
12.71 s at 107.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.12 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.86 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-AMG C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390 have?
385 bhp and 1,690 kg, which is 228 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 9 gears and a quoted top speed of 249 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-AMG C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390?
Closest here on pace: Bentley Continental GTC 6.0 W12 575 (4.19 s), Bentley Continental GTC 6.0 W12 590 (4.19 s), Alpina B7 Biturbo Allrad (4.23 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-AMG C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390 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 Mercedes-AMG C43 3.0 V6 4MATIC 390 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.
