About the TF 1.6 (116 hp)

The 2002 MG TF 1.6 (116 hp) is a rear-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,095 kg with 114 bhp, which works out at 104 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 104 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.82 s. Against the 2,939 cars in the set it is the 2,794th quickest to 60 mph, and the 14th quickest of the 20 MGs here. Its 83.7 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 1 of 1 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 TF 1.6 (116 hp) is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 1 of its 1 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
