About the Bravada 4.2 270

The 2001 Oldsmobile Bravada 4.2 270 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 2,015 kg with 270 bhp, which works out at 134 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 134 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.87 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 6,390th quickest to 60 mph, and the 2nd quickest of the 5 Oldsmobiles here. Its 88.6 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 Oldsmobile Bravada 4.2 270 0-60 time?
The Oldsmobile Bravada 4.2 270 reaches 60 mph in 7.94 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,390th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Oldsmobile Bravada 4.2 270 quarter mile time?
16.30 s at 88.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.72 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.87 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Oldsmobile Bravada 4.2 270 have?
270 bhp and 2,015 kg, which is 134 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 190 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Oldsmobile Bravada 4.2 270?
Closest here on pace: GMC Yukon 5.3 V8 300 (7.96 s), Daewoo Winstorm 3.2 V6 230 (7.96 s), Chrysler Aspen 4.7 V8 303 (8.04 s). Each one can be raced against the Oldsmobile Bravada 4.2 270 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 Oldsmobile Bravada 4.2 270 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.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
