The 2015 MINI Convertible Cooper 1.5 136 (2015) is a front-drive turbocharged roadster of 1,230 kg with 134 bhp, which works out at 109 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.50 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 6,143rd quickest to 60 mph, and the 57th quickest of the 122 MINIs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 85.5 mph at the lights is only the 7,055th 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.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
