Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136

The Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 reaches 60 mph in 7.88 s (100 km/h in 8.84 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.22 s, tripping the lights at 85.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.47 s and the eighth mile in 10.46 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136

The 2002 Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,263 kg with 134 bhp, which works out at 106 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.47 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 6,255th quickest to 60 mph, and the 64th quickest of the 263 Nissans here. Its 85.5 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 Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 0-60 time?
The Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 reaches 60 mph in 7.88 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,255th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 quarter mile time?
16.22 s at 85.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.46 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.47 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 have?
134 bhp and 1,263 kg, which is 106 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136?
Closest here on pace: Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2.0 JTDm 150 (7.96 s), Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS 144 (7.88 s), Ford Mondeo Hatchback 2.2 TDCi 155 (7.88 s). Each one can be raced against the Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 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 Nissan Almera / Pulsar 3dr 2.2 dCi 136 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.
