About the CLA 45 C 118

The 2019 Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 C 118 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged car of 1,680 kg with 382 bhp, which works out at 227 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.87 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 738th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 22nd quickest of the 63 Mercedes-AMGs here. Its 114.2 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 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 C 118 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 C 118 reaches 60 mph in 3.63 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 738th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 C 118 quarter mile time?
12.10 s at 114.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.79 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.87 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 C 118 have?
382 bhp and 1,680 kg, which is 227 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 269 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 C 118?
Closest here on pace: Alpina B4 Biturbo (3.77 s), Alpine A110 S Mk II 300 PS (3.71 s), Alpine A110R (3.59 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 C 118 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 CLA 45 C 118 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
