About the MGF 1.8i

The 1995 MG MGF 1.8i is a rear-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,073 kg with 118 bhp, which works out at 110 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 110 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.55 s. Against the 2,939 cars in the set it is the 2,677th quickest to 60 mph, and the 13th quickest of the 20 MGs here. Its 84.1 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 9 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

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 MG MGF 1.8i is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-02. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
